Hi Bruce,

Sorry for the delay.

I reattempted Windows update on 10/8 but it failed again. I'm attaching the cbs log and setupapi.dev.log as requested.

Thanks

Please do the following.

SFCFix Script

Warning: this fix is specific to the user in this thread. No one else should follow these instructions as it may cause more harm than good. If you are after assistance, please start a thread of your own.

1. Download SFCFix.exe (by niemiro) and save this to your Desktop.
2. Download the file below, SFCFix.zip, and save this to your Desktop. Ensure that this file is named SFCFix.zip - do not rename it.
3. Save any open documents and close all open windows.
4. On your Desktop, you should see two files: SFCFix.exe and SFCFix.zip.
5. Drag the file SFCFix.zip onto the file SFCFix.exe and release it.
6. SFCFix will now process the script.
7. Upon completion, a file should be created on your Desktop: SFCFix.txt.
8. Copy (Ctrl+C) and Paste (Ctrl+V) the contents of this file into your next post for me to analyse please - put </> tags around the log to break up the text.

Then try windows update again and attach CBS.log and setupapi.dev.log if it fails.

Hi Bruce,

That worked! The updates finally completed successfully. Thank you! I will be making a donation to the site this evening.

Probably don't need it, but here are the contents of SFCFix.txt

Thank you again!
