Unfortunately, it is likely I won't be around until January to make many more changes, but I'll follow up then if we run out of time.

MSI software is now broken and Windows asked me to activate it....

Not sure why. The latest fix looked-up a registry key and changed a service to start automatically.

What is the program "Anki" ?
Uninstall "Brother iPrint&Scan".
 
Sorry for the slow reply. Weird, shrug. Brother is my printer. Anki was some kind of flashcard software. I unintalled Anki

Before that, Windows did some kind of an install, not sure if it has fixed things by loading something in. I'll try restarting it again and will update if it is somehow working now.
 
Okay. We'll wait on your reply.
 
Thanks for being here for the slow saga. While it seemed to work for a moment, a couple restarts later and we're back to the same defender issue. 0x80070490 was the error that the troubleshooter found for windows update. Sigh
 
Please attach the file cbs.log.
 
Step 1:
WARNING! The following fix is specific to the user's system in this thread only. No one else should follow these instructions, as it could damage your system.
  • Download the attachment SFCFix.zip and save it on your desktop.
  • Save any work you have open, and close all programs.
  • Drag the SFCFix.zip file over the SFCFix.exe executable and release it.

  • SFCFix will launch, let it complete.
  • Once done, a file will appear on your desktop, called SFCFix.txt.
  • Open the file, then copy and paste its content in your next reply.

Step 2:
Restart the machine.
Run the command sfc /scannow in an elevated commandprompt and report the result.
If it fails attach the file cbs.log to your next reply.

Hi, I was able to get that folder open, but it does not a fixlist file in it. It does have SFCFix.txt. Am I confused?
 
:oops: Sorry, I posted the wrong text in step 1.
Replaced the text in step 1 (I did post the correct attachment)
Please redo the instructions in message #93.
 
Hi,
I tried to run it and I think perhaps my earlier attemps messed it up a bit, as I don't have the output file you requested. However, SFC worked properly with no complaints.
I will try a restart tomorrow.
