Can't open Admin\Desktop\sfcdetails.txt I've been having problems with windows 7 and I thought there might be something wrong with the windows 7 system files so I i did a system file checker scan. After the scan I tried to view the CBS.log file with sfcdetails.txt but it said "FINDSTR: Cannot open Admin\Desktop\sfcdetails.txt"
Is there another way to view the CBS.log file? | My System Specs |

Of the CBS.log\CBS.log, the last one should open with Notepad. The first one you can open anyhow. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP, Dell, Gateway, Toshiba - 4 laptops and 2 desktops OS Vista, Windows7, Mint Mate, Zorin, Windows 8 CPU from 1.6GHz Duo to i7 Monitor(s) Displays 2x HP w2207 Keyboard with trackball - no mices Mouse Trackball mice Hard Drives 5x HDD, 7x SSD, 12x Externals Internet Speed DSL 6000 |

Yeah definately, I think I'll just do a repair install, the CBS.log file is really extensive and weeding out the actual problem would be difficlult | My System Specs | | |

I wonder whether anybody here has a quick method of sifting out those files that are actually damaged. Otherwise the log is really useless. Maybe we should start a new thread asking that question.
Btw: Next time you want to open the CBS.log, copy it to another folder (away from C:\Windows). Then it will open - with Notepad. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP, Dell, Gateway, Toshiba - 4 laptops and 2 desktops OS Vista, Windows7, Mint Mate, Zorin, Windows 8 CPU from 1.6GHz Duo to i7 Monitor(s) Displays 2x HP w2207 Keyboard with trackball - no mices Mouse Trackball mice Hard Drives 5x HDD, 7x SSD, 12x Externals Internet Speed DSL 6000 Can't open Admin\Desktop\sfcdetails.txt problems?
