I thought I responded to this earlier??? - never mind...
They all look OK - or at least the resultant permissions should be OK.
There's obviously a problem with the source files rather than the destination ones....
Let's check that the catdb file actually exists....
DIR C:\Windows\catdb /s
ATTRIB C:\Windows\catdb /s
(they could take a minute or two to run - be patient!
And more:
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7600]
Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
C:\Windows\System32>
C:\Windows\System32>DIR C:\Windows\catdb /s
Volume in drive C is BOOT
Volume Serial Number is 70C0-1102
File Not Found
C:\Windows\System32>ATTRIB C:\Windows\catdb /s
File not found - C:\Windows\catdb
C:\Windows\System32>
That's what I was afraid of - the catdb files haven't been recreated at all, although the structure is there.
Please download and save the CheckSUR tool from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947821
(you'll need to look in the details for Method 2)
Run it - The tool can take anywhere from 5 mins to a couple of hours to run (or 'Install') depending on how much it has to do, and may exit silently - it may appear to freeze for most of that time, but be patient.
The result is logged in the C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.log file - and an archive …\checksur.persist.log file
Then zip the CheckSUR.log and attach it to your reply.
Mmmm............"Installer encountered an error:0xc8000247" - sounds like bad news?
Not unexpected, I'm afraid -
I can really only think a full reset of Windows Updates is necessary, and we'll see if that kicks things into starting properly.
How do I reset Windows Update components?
It's indicates that it found and fixed 2 windows Update problems; However, I'm still getting the same Error message from the CheckSUR tool.
OK - please run the following command and post the results....
DIR C:\Windows\System32\Catroot /s
DIR C:\Windows\System32\Catroot2 /s
ATTRIB C:\Windows\System32\Catroot2\*.* /S
(don't worry about the first one scrolling off the top - I simply need the number of files and folders found)

I have no idea what the dberr.txt file will contain - or how to read it! - but please attach it to a reply, and I'll see if it gives me a clue of any kind.
