So far I've tried:
a number of SFC Scans
CHKDSK
WD Diagnostic's
Tweaking.com's Windows Repair
DISM
System Update Readiness tool
Windows built-in Action Center Update fix
and have also tried downloading/installing updates manually via Microsoft's Update Catalog


I'd like to resolve these errors/corruptions in hopes to do the free upgrade to Windows 10, which I've been running for awhile on another computer.

Thanks
 
Hi wildbug :)

My name is Aura and I'll be assisting you with your issue. Did you try to upgrade to Windows 10 on that computer yet or not? If yes, how did you try to upgrade: using the Media Creation Tool, or via Windows Update?
 
Signed up using the "Get Windows 10" icon with both Computers. I'm assuming it's via Windows Update. Still awaiting notification, which I guess is due to the Windows Update Errors. The Desktop (problem computer) has been having Windows Update errors for awhile now.
I haven't tried upgrading any other way for fear up upgrading overtop some other issue.
 
Thanks Aura. Should I address the Update issue first, or do you think it'll be resolved with the Windows 10 Upgrade?
 
Your Windows Update issues (as well as your other Windows related issues) will be solved once you upgrade to Windows 10 :) I've seen users here that had 1,000+ corrupt files and/or Registry entries, and upgrading to Windows 10 got rid of all that because the files are different and so is the Registry. New files and a new Registry are being created, so old issues don't follow on the new OS.

Sorry it took so long to report back, just wanted to make sure everything was running smoothly...and it is.
Thanks so much!!!
 
No problem wildbug, you're welcome :)
