General Computer Support / Re: Pre-Repairs Scan Help

« on: May 01, 2015, 01:58:29 pm »

Ok, I took the risk and got a Windows 7 iso file from a torrent site (no piracy here, I have the product key from OEM, and scanned it before using it). Did a upgrade install (to preserve my apps and other data), and it fixed my issues.

All Windows updates installed sucessfully. Pre repairs scan found no errors. System file checker tool found no issues.

Thanks to all that have helped me in this thread, as I wouldn't have solved my issues without them!

It does require the Cryptographic Services (CryptSvc) is running, can you check to see if that service is running?

Shane

I can see that it is running on Services, but I don't see it on the Task Manager...

The more I think about it, the more I agree with Rick's suggestion of doing a repair install. However, my OS came preinstalled and cannot get the ISO from microsoft's website, and I don't want to lose my files and program settings...

Even more great news.

I upgraded to the latest version of Tweaking, and ran a pre-repair scan test. I got more errors than last time. I tried to fix them using the sfc /scannow command, and it says that all of them couldn't be fixed. I have attached the scan log.

What to do now?

Do you have the original install disk; sounds like its time to do a repair install!!!!!

it sounds like a better option in your case...

do you need a original install disk?

I guess it is time. I do not have the original disc, as my computer came preinstalled with Windows 7. I tried to get the ISO from the Microsoft website, but it says "The product key you entered appears to be for software that was pre-installed on a device.  Please contact the device manufacturer for software recovery options."

Also, does the repair install delete my data? I don't want to go through the hassle of reinstalling and setting up my apps all over again...

Open a cmd.exe window as administrator and put this in

findstr /c:"[SR]" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log >sfcdetails.txt

It should output only the errors to a sfcdetails.txt file, then you can zip and attach that instead as it should be a lot smaller

Shane

I either get FINDSTR: Cannot open [SR], or FINDSTR: argument missing after /c. The latter was fixed by renaming it to c:/.

Willy2 - I did the search with Everything, and they are all on "C:\Windows\servicing\Packages\"

Shane - I have several cbs.log files, and they are all greater than 90 MB...

So you where not able to replace the files?

Shane

I was able to replace the files, but the windows update failed on both occasions.

Where you able to successfully replace those files I gave you and you had it overwrite the current ones in that folder?

Shane

I tried to do it once, but failed. I will try to do it again asap, and will inform you of the results.

EDIT: Just tried it again, and it still failed, with the same errors.

Hello, I did what you've posted in your last post, to no avail. I have attached the Repair logs.

Have you tried SFC /scannow and reboot?

then download the latest update package for your operating system?

then try again...

I've ran SFC and CHDSK (both options for disk check included), they find no errors, and windows updates still fails. I get code 8E5E03FB every time I try to run it.

Thanks for the reply Shane. I've tried your solution, but I couldn't get rid of the windows update issue. Here's the Pre-Repairs scan that I took after.

General Computer Support / [SOLVED] Pre-Repairs Scan Help

UPDATE: Issue solved, see reply #33.

--x--x--

Hello, I have run a Pre-Repairs Scan, and these are my results. How do I go about fixing these? I have tried searching the internet but it didn't seem to help much.

I have trouble running windows update (I get updates failed to install error), and hopefully if these were fixed I can use it again.
