Tom,

I know that it is your sleep time. Completed the permission changes in the registry and here are the results. I was hoping that you could have access so that you could take a good look without all of extra effort. Thanks again.

Louis

Yay For once, it worked (thanks Noel!):

Finally, some progress! 85 errors down to 5. I missed one from the last registry fix, so could you download and merge the louk1_SURT_Fix_v5.reg as we normally do - just download and double click on it.

Lastly, there are some corruptions in your registry hive that I will need to repair manually, so could you upload your components hive to your Dropbox/Skydrive and send me the link please?

C:\Windows\system32\config\COMPONENTS (it has no file extension)

Ha!

Latest update completely and utterly crippled my machine.

I think it's safe to say that Windows failed to properly create a restore point as well..

Can't system restore. Can't go back to the last restore point, right before the update. Windows update service is down and cannot be force start, so I can't undo recent update, can't use genuine tool, device manager shows blank, cannot force start plugplay.. all of this hell broke loose after update + restart.

If you want help, then you will have to start a thread of your own :)

@illriginalized
Please star a NEW THREAD of your own - with all details.

I can see where the problem is - but I'm not sure what Tom was hoping to do by using that command

Assuming that he was attempting to delete the value, I would use a REG command -

Code:

REG DELETE HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Component Based Servicing\ComponentDetect\amd64_netfx-mscorjit_dll_b03f5f7f11d50a3a_6.1.0.0_none_511b60f4fddfa6f9] /v "Package_3_for_KB2518869~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.1.0.Trigger_3"

Having said that - WAIT to run it (in an Elevated Command Prompt) until Tom confirms that's what is needed

Thanks for stepping in Noel :) You've got a tailing square bracket on the key name:

REG DELETE HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Component Based Servicing\ComponentDetect\amd64_netfx-mscorjit_dll_b03f5f7f11d50a3a_6.1.0.0_none_511b60f4fddfa6f9] /v "Package_3_for_KB2518869~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.1.0.Trigger_3"

And it needs speech marks around the key name as well because of the spaces in Component Based Servicing. I've fixed it, and will use it now :) Thanks again.

@Louis

Noels suggestion is perfect here - it will tell us what the error is, assuming there is one. I have amended Noels script, and I would like you to run this from an elevated command prompt (run as admin). Copy the output into your next post please.

REG DELETE "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Component Based Servicing\ComponentDetect\amd64_netfx-mscorjit_dll_b03f5f7f11d50a3a_6.1.0.0_none_511b60f4fddfa6f9" /v "Package_3_for_KB2518869~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.1.0.Trigger_3"

Like last time, it's just one command and should run properly this time as I've fixed the formatting issues we had with the last reg.exe fix we tried.

Tom

Yeurgh!
That's what comes of watching NCIS reruns while posting!
:)

Tom,

Ran the fix in an elevated command prompt and it was accepted. Here is the latest "components" https://www.dropbox.com/s/eruskrdvrpyyrmt/components

Also attached persist log.

Louis

Hi Louis,

Excellent! Thanks for posting the components hive, you beat me to asking you! We're down to 4 errors now, but these four are harder than the 100 or so we just fixed, put together.

I have asked for a second opinion on where to go from here, because I can't see any apparent issues in your components hive yet the SURT is still complaining and I trust that more than I do my tired eyes! I'll keep you posted, it shouldn't be too long though.

Tom

Edit: Seems like you posted whilst I was typing. Good luck to your grandson!
