issues adding feature on Server 2016 standard has led CBS errors with KB4598243

[dirtymac]

I downloaded the previous file and it seems to be ok for me. I did remove the .reg extension on it. Either way, I have followed the new instructions and attached the file. This new file does not appear to be text-only.

Hi,

I did remove the .reg extension on it.

That was the issue, because it was not exported as HIVE file from the registry.

Please run the steps in post #34 again and post the result of SFCFix only.

Here you go!

Please run the following commands in an elevated prompt and post the result of both. If one of them fails attach a new copy of the CBS log.

SFC /Scannow
DISM /online /cleanup-image /RestoreHealth

 

[dirtymac]

SFC completed successfully. DISM is looking for a source. I am attaching the output and the CBS logs. Also, the CBS logs rolled over so I am including two.

DISM completed successfully this time.

Please try to install the backup feature again, if it fails attach a new copy of the CBS logs.

 

[dirtymac]

I tried with and without providing the source image and received the same error.

Hi,

Could you please run the following commands in an elevated command prompt, afterwards attach disk-checks.txt to your next post.

DISM /online /Get-Features /Format:table > "%userprofile%\desktop\dism-checks.txt"
DISM /online /get-packages /format:table >> "%userprofile%\desktop\dism-checks.txt" 
DISM /online /get-intl >> "%userprofile%\desktop\dism-checks.txt"

Here is the output file.

Hi,

Please try to install the Windows Backup feature again with Process Monitor running.

Step#1 - Capture Process Monitor Trace
1. Download and run Process Monitor. Leave this running while you perform the next steps.
2. Try to install the Windows Backup feature just like you have in the past.
3. Stop Process Monitor as soon as it fails. You can simply do this by clicking the square (CTRL +E) on the toolbar as shown below.



4. Select the File menu...Save... and save the file to your desktop. This is likely the default location. The name (unless changed) will be LogFile.PML. This is fine.
5. Zip up the LogFile.PML and upload it to WeTransfer - Send Large Files & Share Photos Online - Up to 2GB Free and provide the link.

Please post the latest CBS logs as well, so I can use the time stamps to search for.

Hi,

Please do the following to look at some folders, and attach a new copy of the COMPONENTS hive.

Download the

Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your Desktop:

Download the 64 bit version: - Farbar Recovery Scan Tool Link

• Download the attachment fixlist.txt and save it to your desktop.
• Right-click on FRST.exe and select "Run as administrator".
• Press the Fix button.
• If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally.
• When finished, a log called Fixlog.txt will appear in the same directory the tool is run from.
• Post the logfile Fixlog.txt as attachment in your next reply.

Upload your COMPONENTS hive.

• Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\Config and locate the COMPONENTS file.
• Please copy this file to your desktop.
• Note: If you receive an error that this file is in-use, simply reboot your computer and try again.
• Right-click on this file on your desktop and select Send To > Compressed (zipped) folder. This will create a file named COMPONENTS.ZIP on your desktop.
• If the file is too large to upload here, upload the file to www.wetransfer.com and post the link in your next reply.

 

[dirtymac]

Here is the Fix log and the compressed COMPONENTS file.

Hi,

Thanks, I'll need to do some research on a VM, it seems I was able to reproduce this issue. So I will provide a new fix tommorow after a few tests.
