Let's have a new set of CheckSUR and SFC scan results, please - and a copy of the COMPONENTS registry hive...


I need to have alook at your COMPONENTS registry hive



Please copy theC:\Windows\System32\config\COMPONENTS file (no extension) to your desktop andthen compress it - upload the compressed file to your favoured fileshare site(preferably Dropbox or OneDrive) and post a link.

Hi Noel, Thank you for all your help, it's been very much appreciated and I've learnt quite a lot from your guidance. You're an absolute gentleman for everything you've done for me and my parents computer!
I bit the bullet a few days ago, downloaded an official Windows 7 iso file, did a repair installation and after all the updates it seems to be working as it should! I'm pleased to say that the regular microsoft updates are now installing as they should
Thanks again Noel!
Kind regards,
Carl

You're welcome - I have a suspicion that we'd have ended up doing that anyhow.

Good luck with it!
