Please do the following. Your machine will need to be rebooted in the instructions below and your machine will be offline while it does the check so do it when you don't have to use your machine for a little while.

Step#1 - ChkDsk Repair
1. Click your Start Orb in the lower left of your computer and type cmd in the search box.
2. Once the cmd program is found, right-click on it with your mouse and select Run as administrator as shown below.

3. Answer Yes when asked to allow.
4. You should now have a black window open that you can type in to.
5. Please type chkdsk /R and then press enter. Note: There is a space after the command chkdsk and before the forward slash
6. You will get a prompt telling you chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use. Answer Y and hit enter to schedule the run at next boot.
7. Reboot your computer and chkdsk will run. Let it complete please.
8. Right-click ListChkdskResult.exe and select Run as administrator (Allow if prompted)and a text file will open (and also be saved on the desktop as ListChkdskResult.txt).
Please copy the contents of this file and paste into your next post.
 
Re: [Win8.1] Win.Update spinning

The listchkdskresult does nothing. I am looking in eventvwr for wininit entries to get the info you need. This is tedious but the only thing I can think of
 
Re: [Win8.1] Win.Update spinning

got the same result error 1812. dism log is in the link.

To confirm when you dragged the SFCFix.zip file from Post#26 and dropped it on to the SFCFix.exe file you received the error mentioned above? Or did you get that error when you tried something else?

Re: [Win8.1] Win.Update spinning

I dragged the file over SFXfix.exe and let it run. I am happy to try again. the chkdsk results showed non helpful to our problem , I believe. Let me know and I am on it.
