Help understanding CBS.log file paths
So I've been trying to use system file checker, and encountered a problem where it can't repair a file. I found this page detailing how to manually fix the problem:
Use the System File Checker tool to troubleshoot missing or corrupted system files on Windows Vista or on Windows 7
I was fine until step 2, where it says
"For example, type takeown /f E:\windows\system32\extremely_simplified_example.dll"
The problem is, my CBS.log file says stuff like:
Cannot repair member file [l:24{12}]"FWPKCLNT.SYS"
Unable to repair \SystemRoot\WinSXS\Manifests\\[l:24{12}]"FWPKCLNT.SYS"
and I don't know how to translate that into a path to use with the takeown command. I searched for that file using explorer and found a dozen different copies, so I'm not sure which one to replace.
Semi-related questions: Can I just replace them all? I'm planning on using a copy of the file from a similar system that works, is that ok?
Thanks!
