    System Restore, Windows Update and ATI's CCC files corrupted


    By following the tutorial of how to run System File Checker I found the files malgunmc.ttf, wucltux.dll Amd64\hpd7500t.dll (part of prnhp004.inf) were all corrupted. I ran System File Checker several times to see if it would automatically correct the files…it did not. So I followed the next tutorial “How to Extract Files from the Windows 7 Installation DVD” and extracted the files and replaced them…this did not fix the issues either (ran System File Checker afterword’s and it found same issues). I replaced the files twice, once in normal mode and after it did not work in normal mode tried it in safe mode, no joy. I am at a loss what to try next, I do not want to reinstall the operating system due to the computer is working fine even with these issues, windows update does work automatically I just cannot do it manually. Any idea’s what to try next?

    Hello Radman,

    If you like, you could pick up at the System Update Readiness Tool option in the note box under step 4 in Option Two of the SFC tutorial below to see if it may be able to help.

    SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker

    Hope this helps, :)

    Thanks for the reply Brink. I tried the System Update Readiness Tool and it still shows the same corrupted files after rerunning System File Checker, ran it four times too. I also tried Chkdsk (only checked for errors), anti-malware and anti-virus programs in normal and safe mode...they found no issues. Thanks for the help Brink, any other ideas?

    In that case, you could do a repair install without losing anything.

    I was afraid you would say that. I think I would just do a clean install. I was trying to avoid having to activate Windows again, might as well do a clean install...it is better in the long run. I have changed hardware and reinstalled so many times now I have to phone it in now with all those numbers...what a pain. This was a clean install a few months ago and I'm not sure what corrupted those files. From the research I have done seems a windows update may have been the cause. Or it could have been my memory settings were wrong. I found a few weeks ago I had my memory set to 1600, but at that speed I should have had the Command Rate at 2T...I had it on 1T. That is like a bad overclock. Thanks for the help Brink.
