    Can someone read sfc details text


    I have recently not been able to run sfc /scannow. It gets to 15% and says it cannot continue. I normally run it twice a week so know it is recent. There have been no software or hardware changes except Windows updates recently. Otherwise the system runs fine. It is not a virus or malware. I ran a scan with MSE, Malwarebytes and 11 hours of Microsoft system sweeper. Nothing was found. I am including the sfc details text. Any help would be appreciated. If it can be fixed, I would appreciate knowing how, but would rather do a clean install than spend 5 hours trying to fix it. Thanks. I have also run checkdisk F/ R/

    In the first place, why are you running the sfc tool twice a week? It's not a maintenance tool and there's no point in running it unless you're having severe problems with Windows - and even then, other steps should be attempted before going to sfc.

    As for your log file, it complains about t2embed.dll which belongs to Microsoft's TrueType rendering engine. I think there was a recent security patch affecting exactly this file, and having that patch installed might be what's throwing sfc off...although it shouldn't.

    Honestly, if there's nothing else obviously wrong with your system I wouldn't worry about this error for the time being and just stop using sfc.

    Corazon, thanks for the info. I fixed it and scannow now works fine. I choose to run it often. I think it is prudent to know if there are any system files corrupted before it crashes and burns. Thanks for your help.

    To each their own, but glad to hear you got it fixed. :)
