    Roxy,

    From an elevated command prompt, navigate to the folder with cbs.log.
    Now using the DEL command, can you delete cbs.log?

    Ok. I finally was able to open the CBSLog. A huge file which is quite complicated for me to determine what is what.

    Yet, the most prominent file which was not fixable was tcpmon.ini.
    This is one of the lines: CSI 000011c4 [SR] Could not reproject corrupted file [ml:520{260},l:46{23}]"\??\C:\Windows\System32"\[l:20{10}]"tcpmon.ini"; source file in store is also corrupted

    What do you figure is going on?

    Thank you.

    I would back up my documents and perform a repair install.

    Roxy,
    From an elevated command prompt:
    Navigate to the folder with cbs.log
    Delete cbs.log
    Run SFC /Scannow once and only once.

    findstr /c:"[SR]" cbs.log > sfcdetails.txt

    Attach sfcdetails.txt or the contents thereof to your next post

    Karlsnooks: Sorry, I can't do anything to CBS.log. Windows won't let me delete or move or anything. What I did earlier was copy it to my external drive and was able to read it.

    Actually, when I click on delete CBS.log, a msge pops up saying File In Use -- it is open in Windows Modules Installer. Close the file and try again...

    What can I do to pry it from Windows Modules Installer?

    Thank you.

    Don't know how that happened but what you can try is to boot from a System Repair Disc, go to a command prompt and delete it there.

    DISC - CREATE A SYSTEM REPAIR DISC
    START | type System Repair | Enter key | Create Disc button
    ________________________________________
    ________________________________________

    COMMAND PROMPT - GO TO A COMMAND PROMPT USING A SYSTEM REPAIR DISC
    1) Insert System Repair Disc into optical reader.
    2) Shutdown your computer.
    3) Boot up your computer from the System Repair Disc
    If your computer doesn’t boot from the optical drive, then
    Immediately after pushing your Power ON button, start tapping the F2 key to get to the BIOS to change the boot order.OR
    Immediately after pushing your Power ON button, start tapping the F12 key and choose CD/DVD to change the boot order only for this time.
    4) Wait while a mini-version of Windows is loaded and finally the System Recovery Options dialog appears.
    5) SYSTEM RECOVERY OPTIONS dialog |
    Select a keyboard input method |
    NEXT button
    6) SYSTEM RECOVERY OPTIONS dialog
    will search your system for installed versions of Windows.
    7) SYSTEM RECOVERY OPTIONS dialog |

    NEXT button
    8) SYSTEM RECOVERY OPTIONS |
    Choose a recovery tool |
    9) Click on command prompt from the list shown

    Run any desired commands and type EXIT when finished.
    Remove the System Repair Disc.
    Shutdown your computer.
    Power on your computer.
