    NoelDP,

    I downloaded this folder to the default location (no location was specified in the directions). I then (as per your instructions) extracted all. This created the folder.

    Code:
    Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]

C:\Users\John>cd downloads

C:\Users\John\Downloads>dir pvgaa

    The newly created folder has a folder in it called packages.

    Code:
    C:\Users\John\Downloads\pvgaa>dir Packages

    I copied this folder to the Directory of c:\windows\temp\checksur\packages

    This was incorrect, as you specified C:\Windows\Temp\CheckSur\Servicing\Packages

    After running the tool, all references to KB3013126 in Checksur went away. However, references to KB3004394 remain. Also, the Checksur file size was reduced from a zip'd 24MB to much smaller, 31KB.

    I have recopied the packages folder to the correct, specified folder:

    Code:
    C:\Windows\Temp\CheckSUR\servicing>dir packages
 Volume in drive C has no label.
 Volume Serial Number is A01A-E001

    The Checksur from today and before seem identical, while the CBS shrunk.

    Brain-death and man-flu hit me - sorry about that.

    OK - I think I'm sorted now.


    I've uploaded a file - pvgac.zip - to my OneDrive at Noel's OneDrive
    Please download and save it.
    Right-click on the downloaded file, and select Extract all…
    Extract to the default location - which will create a new folder pvgac in the same place.
    Open this folder - there should be one folders inside it (Packages)

    Copy the content of the Packages folder to the folder
    C:\Windows\Temp\CheckSur\Servicing\Packages


    Now run the CheckSUR tool again (it may take a while)

    Post the new CheckSUR.log file, and the CheckSUR.persist.log file.

    Reboot and immediately uninstall KB3004394!!
