- Also post the log that was produced by the "SFC Fix" program.
- My personal recommendation is to switch to "Download & Notify"and let Windows install the updates when you shut down your system. It will (dramatically) increase the canche of a succesful installation.
 
Willy2 the updates are done finished you can stick a fork in them, now let"s get on with the sfc file fixing and I will be good. Working with you techs I have learned how to navigate the forum and follow the instructions much better than when i first joined the forum so the speed of doing has increased .
 
Carl, this should fix your other files. Please do the following.

Step#1 - 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.

  1. Download SFCFix.exe (by niemiro) and save this to your Desktop. If you still have this on your desktop from downloading previously, you don't need to re-download.
  2. Download the file below, SFCFix.zip, and save this to your Desktop. Ensure that this file is named SFCFix.zip - do not rename it.
  3. Save any open documents and close all open windows.
  4. On your Desktop, you should see two files: SFCFix.exe and SFCFix.zip.
  5. Drag the file SFCFix.zip onto the file SFCFix.exe and release it.
  6. SFCFix will now process the script.
  7. Upon completion, a file should be created on your Desktop: SFCFix.txt.
  8. Copy (Ctrl+C) and Paste (Ctrl+V) the contents of this file into your next post for me to analyse please

Step#2 - SFC Scan


  1. Click on the Start
    Start%20Orb.jpg
    button and in the search box, type Command Prompt
  2. When you see Command Prompt on the list, right-click on it and select Run as administrator
  3. When command prompt opens, copy and paste the following commands into it, press enter after each

    sfc /scannow

    Wait for this to finish before you continue

    copy %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log %userprofile%\Desktop\cbs.txt
  4. This will create a file, cbs.txt on your Desktop. Please attach this to your next post.

Please Note:: if the file is too big to upload to your next post please upload via a service such as Dropbox or One Drive or SendSpace and just provide the link.

Items for your next post

Man you are faithful and dependable. I am surprised that gave you a report because on my last post the sfc/ scannow is reporting that the scan cannot start the repairs. here is the script

oh by the way I cannot run the sfc /scannow because the reply is windows resources could not start the repair service and also the updates are not checking for updates.
