[SOLVED] Error Code 1935 not allowing me to download C++ 2005

[x BlueRobot]

Thanks for providing the CBS log, I've had a look through and it appears one of the manifest files for a SSU update has been corrupted. I'll work on providing a fix for the corrupted file for you.

In the meantime, since you've had a number of issues, let's ensure that the drive is healthy.

Could you please download and run Samsung Magician, there should be an option for a S.M.A.R.T. status and a health check. Your other drive appears to be an Intel and therefore you'll need to carry out similar steps but using the Intel SSD tool.

 

[YSaad2]

Ok thank you very much, I will try these steps as soon as I get a chance and send you any updates.

 

[YSaad2]

I ran Samsung Magician and used the S.M.A.R.T. status and the health check and everything was all good. I also ran the Intel tool and it was fine as well.

Run the Microsoft Windows 11 compatibility tester: (bottom of this link)
Upgrade to the New Windows 11 OS | Microsoft
Post images or share links into this thread.

- I did this and my PC was compatible.

Upgrade the BIOS: 1820 > 3211
PRIME B450M-A - Support

- I upgraded my BIOS to 3211

Open administrative command prompt and type or copy and paste:
fsutil resource setautoreset true C:\
shutdown /r

8) Attempt to install C++ 2005 (this is for academic purposes)

- I did this as well and it did not work, still didn't let me install C++ 2005.

9) Backup any important files

10) Backup any important bookmarks

- This is done as well

Then, were I you, if you already have a fresh Windows 10 ISO file to hand (or Windows 11 if you want to try a direct upgrade, but if it doesn't work then punt back to a Windows 10 ISO), I'd try:

Doing a Completely Clean (Re)install of Windows 10 Using Media Creation Tool to Fetch the Win10 ISO File

Since I presume you already have the ISO file, you can skip the steps related to doing the initial download of same.

If you do not have a fresh ISO file, and want to make things a bit simpler, then try:

Doing a Completely Clean (Re)install of Windows 10 Using Media Creation Tool to Create Bootable Win10 Install Media on a USB Thumb Drive

I tend to favor the ISO method simply because I like having an ISO file at hand for other repair installs should they become necessary, though those can be done using the bootable media as well. The choice is yours.

After you have a brand spankin' fresh instance of Windows, restore your user data and any programs you may use.

So if I have my games and such installed on my D drive, will I need to install them again, or will they already be installed when I clean reinstall Windows 10?

 

[britechguy]

If you have anything installed, on any drive, they will have to be installed again, as by definition "installed" means that registry entries have been made that make reference to the actual location(s) of the program(s) being invoked.

If they're on a separate drive, and are portable programs, in that everything runs from that location sans installation, then you don't have to do anything other than re-create your shortcuts.

Any clean reinstall of any version of Windows never retains the registry entries from whatever was there before. That's actually an essential part of the definition of "completely clean" in this context.

I'll add to what Brian said:
If these are Steam, Origin, EA games etc, Then all you'd have to do is re-install the game platform and go into the platforms settings and point your games folder to where they are stored on the D drive. Most of the platform-based games store the data in the cloud.

For instance Steam:

For share links please use one drive, drop box, or google drive.


Upgrading the BIOS may have favorably impacted the results of the Microsoft compatibility tester.


For a USB flash drive one or more of these may be an option:
a) borrow one from a friend, neighbor, relative, or local computer store
b) shop during todays cyber monday sales
c) find a flash drive that has data that can be reinstalled

Yes, you've brought up yet another class of software that's not, in the fully conventional sense, installed. It's a weird hybrid much akin to a client-server arrangement with a local storage element (not unlike email clients, really). There's still an installed component, though, and that component does have to be reinstalled.

I believe I've managed to find clean versions for the corrupted files I've found so far. I've asked for one of more experienced WU helpers to verify the fix.

 

[YSaad2]

So what I did was completely reinstall windows 10 from a USB using an ISO file and it seems to have done the trick for me. My PC is now working fine, I just have to redownload everything. I appreciate everyone's help and just wanted to let you all know this so you would stop working too hard if you are still. Thanks again!

 

[x BlueRobot]

Thanks for letting us know, glad you're back up and running.

 

[britechguy]

I cannot tell you how much this kindness is appreciated. There is a lot of unnecessary "preparatory effort" for likely next steps when a solved issue is not identified as having been solved.

Really glad to hear that you're back up and running! Now, as parting advice, if you do not already have an established backup protocol that at least includes a full system image backup on whatever interval is necessary based on the amount of new data you generate, possibly along with a separate user data backup, then please take the time to establish one now.

It is just so much easier to restore from a recent image, with virtually all of your stuff but the very newest intact, if things "go south" in any one of a number of ways on a computer. It also generally takes under an hour, too.

I'm glad to read the initial results.

You're welcome.


The earlier Sysnative log collector log files had displayed in the past 30 days 1 BSOD and approximately 11 unexpected shutdowns and restarts.


If there are no unexpected shutdowns and restart during the next week please comment into the thread and it can be marked solved.


If there are unexpected shutdowns and restarts after the clean install then there may be malfunctioning hardware.


Then post new Sysnative log files.
