Windows Update not working (Current Error: 80070246)

[Agraavan]

OMG, I'm as giddy as a school girl. Just my luck, I'll not be able to do this process until tonight, when I'll be back on my comfy hideout.

But until then, let me get this straight before I FUBAR it: I should put the .bak extension at the file at the link (30.464 kb) and just put it into the appropriated folder, right? There will be no "components" or "components.bak" already in the system32\config, right? I got a little confused with the "I can't stress the importance of backing up the COMPONENTS hive enough" bit.

[fake edit] Or maybe there is already a components file at the system32\config and I should rename it as components.bak and just copy the "dropbox-components" as it is to the mentioned folder. I'm stupid.

[fake edit] Or maybe there is already a components file at the system32\config and I should rename it as components.bak and just copy the "dropbox-components" as it is to the mentioned folder. I'm stupid.

Correct - your config folder will look similar to this:

I've highlighted the COMPONENTS file in red - rename that file to COMPONENTS.bak, and then copy the fixed version from my dropbox to that folder.

Please feel free to ask any more questions, and don't proceed unless you're happy! :)

[Agraavan]

Gotcha, I'll proceed as soon as I can and report back.

Thanks, Stephen.

 

[Agraavan]

Did it do anything? *closing my eyes*

 

[Tekno Venus]

It's done something, not as much as I had hoped though:

There's still quite a bit more work to do, but here's the next fix. This should get rid of 3 more errors.

Whoops, made a mistake with that! I checked the script, but I can now see the obvious mistake. Run the SURT if you want, but I'll post a corrected version tomorrow!

Sorry!
Stephen

 

[Agraavan]

Arrgh, you! ;_;

I'll be sulking in a corner until tomorrow, then.

(No problem, you have helped me a ton so far)

 

[Tekno Venus]

Still kicking myself over that error, but at least no damage was done. Sorry for the inconvenience - I should have spotted that.

Here's a revised version of the script. Download it and run it the same as before:https://www.dropbox.com/s/lelk61kgzglswka/SFCFix.txt?dl=1

Once you've done that, run the SURT and send me the latest log (C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.persist.log)

[Agraavan]

Stephen, I'm getting an Error 404 with that last link.

 

[Tekno Venus]

Fixed.

I ran SURT anyway and here is the CheckSUR.Persist.Log. Is it doin' what it is supposed to be doin'? I'm anxious.

[edit] OMFG, I'm hyperventilating. I checked the windows update just because and lo and behold, 119 important updates were there, ready to download. I'm downloading them right now.

Is it all fixed? Is there anything more to be done? Am I awake? Is this real life?

 

[Tekno Venus]

Well that's not what I expected to happen, it seems SFCFix is still failing to import that registry key.

Let's take a step back and look at what we've done and what we've got left to do...

The first thing I did was perform a repair of your COMPONENTS hive to maually correct the bitflips. Bitflips are where one character in a registry gets changed to another, such as:

amd64_microsoft-windows-m..s-service.resources_31bf38[COLOR=#ff0000][B]±[/B][/COLOR]6ad364e35_6.1.7600.16385_en-us_728447dc6341700d

Those repaired fine.

The next thing I aimed to do was fix these 3 errors:

(f)    CSI C Mark Deployment Missing    0x00000000    c!microsoft-w..-deployment_31bf3856ad364e35_8.0.7600.16385_c4·68845a9be06f2    wow64_microsoft-windows-ie-adminkitmostfiles_31bf3856ad364e35_8.0.7600.16385_none_2f3604fdcbd9aaab

(f)    CBS Registry Error    0x80070002    Package_for_KB981852~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.1.1        failed to get CurrentState
(f)    CBS Registry Error    0x80070002    Package_for_KB981852~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.1.1        failed to get Visibility

These should have been simple export known good copies and import them into your registry. But for some strange reason, those replacements aren't working. I'm not quite sure why.

So where do we go from here? Well, we do some more tests and try some more - I'm not going to give up on your thread.

The first thing I would like to do is rule out an underlying hardware issue. Bitflips and corruptions can sometimes be caused by faulty hardware (especially bitflips), and the hardware that is at fault is normally RAM. To check if your RAM has any issues, please follow the following tutorial: Test RAM With Memtest86+ - Sysnative Forums

Secondly, I would like to see what SFCFix's Automated Analysis engine thinks of your issue at the moment.

SFCFix AutoAnalysis

1. Download SFCFix.exe and save this to your Desktop.
2. Save any open documents and close all open windows.
3. Double click on SFCFix.exe to open it.
4. Follow all on screen instructions and upon completion, a file should be created on your Desktop: SFCFix.txt.
5. Copy (Ctrl + C) and Paste (Ctrl + V) the contents of this file into your next post for me to analyse please.

Finally, I would like to get some more files from you to analyse. First I would like your COMPONENTS hive again - you can use our automated system for that:

SFCFix COMPONETS Collection

1. Download SFCFix.exe using the following link and save the tool to your Desktop: [sfcfixdownload]Download SFCFix[/sfcfixdownload]
2. Download SFCFix.txt and save this to your Desktop as well: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u...s/~Generic/Collect/COMPONENTS/SFCFix.txt?dl=1
3. On your Desktop, you should now see two files: SFCFix.exe and SFCFix.txt.
4. Drag the file SFCFix.txt onto the file SFCFix.exe and release it.
5. SFCFix will now begin to upload your COMPONENTS hive to our server.

The next file I need you to get manually:

Export registry as hive

1. Click on the Start
   
   button and in the search box, type regedit
2. When you see regedit on the list, right-click on it and select Run as administrator
3. When regedit opens, using the left pane, navigate to the following registry key and select it by clicking on it once.
   
   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Component Based Servicing\
   
   
4. Once selected, click File > Export....
5. Change the Save as type: to Registry Hive Files (*.*)
6. Name this file SideBySide (with no file extension) and save it to your Desktop.
7. Zip this file up and attach it to your next post

Sorry there's a lot to do here, just work through it one at a time and don't despair! I've got another expert working with me in the background, so there's more than just me working on this. It's difficult, but we'll get there.

Regards,
Stephen

Pardon my stupidity, but is it possible to download a .exe version of MemTest? I don't have acess to a memory stick nor to a CD. Anyway, I don't think I have a problem with memory RAM, because I changed it after I've been facing those problems. So, unless I had faulty memory before and coincidently have faulty memory now, I don't think this is the culprit (unless it's in the MoBo slots). Anyway, I'll make the test as soon as I figure if there is a way to do it without sticks and CDs.

So, here is the AutoAnalysis

I already uploaded the hive to the server and I'm now attaching the SideBySide here.

Hey,

Memtest doesn't have an exe version - it's boot only since it needs to check your RAM before Windows starts. However, since you say you replaced your RAM, I doubt the current RAM is faulty - the bitflips could have occurred from the old RAM. I would still recommend a memtest run though when you get the chance.

Thanks for all those files, I'm going to analyse them now and see if I can see something. Can you do the following for me in the mean time:

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.

[Tekno Venus]

Perfect, thanks. I'll get back to you in a bit

 

[Tekno Venus]

Right, let's fix those bitshifts detected by SFCFix:

Replace COMPONENTS Hive

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. Please download the below file, components.zip and save this to your Desktop.
2. Right-click on the file and select Extract All...
3. Tick the box labelled Show extracted files when complete then click Extract
4. A window will open showing a file: components (it has no file extension)
5. Then navigate to C:\Windows\system32\config and rename the file components to components.bak.
6. Copy (Ctrl+C) and Paste (Ctrl+V) the components file on your Desktop into this folder.
7. Run the System Update Readiness Tool (SURT) again and when it finishes installing, attach the log to your next post please:
   
   C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.persist.log

https://www.dropbox.com/s/iuup6wgnapa7kyg/COMPONENTS.zip

Note: If, at any point, you are displayed an error saying the file is in use, or access denied, reboot and try again.

Once you've done that, I'm going to need to fix up your SOFTWARE hive as well, because that has some bitflips in it too.

SFCFix SOFTWARE Hive Collection

1. Download SFCFix.exe using the following link and save the tool to your Desktop: [sfcfixdownload]Download SFCFix[/sfcfixdownload]
2. Download SFCFix.txt and save this to your Desktop as well: https://www.dropbox.com/s/zmwdi2tk09dohfn/SFCFix.txt?dl=1
3. On your Desktop, you should now see two files: SFCFix.exe and SFCFix.txt.
4. Drag the file SFCFix.txt onto the file SFCFix.exe and release it.
5. SFCFix will now begin to upload your hive to our server.

Done and done.
