    Multiple corrupt files in winsxs!


    Having trouble opening certain applications, like Malwarebytes and Firefox.


    Went ahead and ran SFC/ scannow, SCFix, and SURT. CHKDSK and memtests were all normal. Windows Defender found nothing.


    It looks to be three files that are causing my problems, and none of the programs above were able to repair them:



    CORRUPT: C:\Windows\winsxs\amd64_microsoft-windows-directwrite_31bf3856ad364e35_7.1.7601.24535_none_22a8a7d5ba228383\DWrite.dll

    CORRUPT: C:\Windows\winsxs\amd64_microsoft-windows-networkexplorer_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7601.23403_none_9f0ba19275968950\networkexplorer.dll

    CORRUPT: C:\Windows\winsxs\amd64_microsoft-windows-wpd-shellextension_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7601.23403_none_6fe22d2af67fe01c\wpdshext.dll



    Also, it looks like there are other errors in my CBS.log, but it's too large to upload.


    Thanks for the help.

My W7 winsxs folder is 15 GB. About half of the files are amd64_......... What are these files for? Are they for AMD 64 bit processing systems? If my system uses an Intel processor can I delete these amd64_ files? I could save about 7.5 GB space if they aren't used by my system.
