hey sorry for the late respone

@boggins: yes i can run them both in safemode (img.5 and log), the log said that there are 3 corrupted CSI Payload files (2 of them .dll). I have no clue if they are related, it's a bit above my tech skills. I still have to try the copypasting of the dll files, haven't got around to it yet (bit hectic with my paper) but i will.

@shane: i made another account but it gave the same errors (tested it with and without admin rights)

Thanks for the help guys/girls, but the errors persist:

@Boggin: i tried the Rollback option, but unfortunately it didn't work. Thanks for the links btw

@jhillman: i tried the command, but it gives a 0x0000142 error on start up of Powershell. So allas that's a dead end

@Shane: Yes i tried your repair tool in safe mode (awesome tool btw thanks), but around 41 it gave (again) a 0x0000142 error multiple times when i tried to start Powershell. After that it completed the repair, but i still have the same 0x0000142 errors. Also did checkdisk but it found nothing.

General Computer Support / windows 8.1 Pro - 0x0000142 errors

Hey,

I having a difficult time solving Application 0x0000142 errors on my pc. Recently i noticed that when i reïnstalled several programs (like NexusModManager) and run them, they crashed. Looking back i first noticed it when i reïnstalled the driver of my AMD graphics card and i was getting MOM.exe (part of amd's Catalyst Control Center i believe) 0x0000142 errors on start up of my pc.

After that it got worse several other red flags included:
- troubleshoot restriction errors (img.1)
- windows installer errors (img.2)
- cmd telling me i'm no longer the admin (img.3), which freaked me out
- windows file explorer just closes when it's searching.
- Being told i'm no longer admin i looked in gpedit.msc, but snap-in failed (img.4). Not sure if related.
- when i wanted to reset windows to factory settings it only said it was missing files and then closed.

I think they are related because a lot of these things seem point to admin or .dll files.

Im on the end of my rope, i tried google searching and fixing myself but nothing works. Thing i tried:
- Registry fixes (Advanced System care, CCleaner), keeps finding same errors after a while.
- Updating windows (which fought me al the way)
- Running programs as admin with compatibility
- Defrag HDD (windows is located on SSD but they don't need to be defraged), bit pointless but what the heck 
- windows disk cleaner (tried to remove windows updates but no luck)
- Malware scans (AVG, Malwarebytes Anti-Rootkit)
- Even botnet scans (Check and Secure)
- Also i wanted to try replacing al the .dll files as Shane mentioned here: http://www.tweaking.com/forums/index.php/topic,2473.0.html. But i don't know anyone i could copy from who has 8.1 pro, everybody i know is a hardcore windows 7 nut

Also tried to reset windows to factory setting, only as i mentioned earlier it failed due to missing files. I don't have a dvd or usb with my windows 8.1 to do a complete reset (i got it online from my uni due to the fact i'm a poor dirty student ), and im no longer eligible to get it again. So i really hope there is a fix.

Does anyone have experience with this? Or knows a fix?

Thanks and much appreciation in advance for any feedback & help. Happy holidays everyone!
