Files not updating in circumstances after update

Ok, I found the disk, but when I did what you suggested, it said that it can't because of a system repair.

Did it run System Repair that didn't successfully finish?

No. It just said that there was a System Repair pending.

Hi

please let the repair complete,(you can force it via Advanced Boot options).

Um, by Super Mario World hacks, I mean ROM hacks.
And I did try to force the repair, but I'm still getting the same result.

Hi Nambona890,

Couple of more things to try

from Safe mode >> Command prompt run these(copy/paste them in)

DISM /image:C:\ /cleanup-image /revertpendingactions

then
sfc /SCANNOW /OFFBOOTDIR=c:\ /OFFWINDIR=c:\windows


NOTE C should be the drive letter that the system is running from.


Roy

I tried both commands in both Safe Mode with Command Prompt and Repair Your Computer, but DISM gave me "The /Image option that is specified points to a running Windows installation.", and sfc gave me "The arguments passed to sfc are invalid. The offline windows directory specified points to the online system."

Hi nambona890,

Please confirm that your OS is running on "C"

is this comp Dual booting??

Roy

It runs on the C drive, and I am not dual booting.
I have 2 drives: an SSD which runs my OS, and a hybrid drive. Both of them have the issue stated in my initial post.
