Solved Sfc scannow problem

[Blblr]

Hi i need your help again guys
I run sfc /scannow and it stops at 7% i tried CHKDSK, doesn't help. I will attach sfc details log ? i wanned to use sfc scannow because i kept getting "there is a problem with this windows installer package. a program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor" when i tried to install a program. i tried everything and nothing helped so thats why im trying to run sfc scannow so that maybe it would fix that problem. Sorry for my bad english View attachment sfcdetails.txt

Hello blblr,

If you have not already, you might see if you may be able to run the sfc /scannow command at boot instead to see if will finish running.

Hope this helps,

Thanks for replying but idk what to do at step 5 i need to select operating system but its empty ?

 

[Brink]

That's fine. Go ahead and click on Next to see if you may be able to continue.

It says "Windows Resource Protection could not start the repair service"

 

[Brink]

Double check to make sure that you have the Windows Modules Installer service is not disabled and is set to Manual.

 

[Blblr]

Yep, it's set to Manual :| what could be the problem ? maybe i didn't type it right(sfc /scannow /offbootdir=c:\ /offwindir=c:\windows) is it ok ?

I always follow the option two of the tutorial http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1538-sfc-scannow-command-system-file-checker.html , and type the commend as instructed there

 

[Brink]

Yep, be sure to use METHOD TWO in the tutorial using the diskpart command first. The Windows drive letter is not always C: at boot as it is while in Windows.

Did everyhing correctly this time and still getting that "Windows Resource Protection could not start the repair service"

By any chance, do you have UAC turned off , or do you use Take Ownership context menu ?

 

[Blblr]

Yep i used to have UAC turned off but after trying to run sfc scannow i turned it on and yesterday when i tried method two it was turned on and yes i do have Take Ownership context menu.

 

[Arc]

Sometimes taking ownership cause some conflicts to run the utilities which are to run within the ownership of trusted installer .

If you run the "Remove takeownership.reg" , set your UAC to default, and try SFC /SCANNOW Command as per the method two, I hope there will be a difference in the result .

 

[Blblr]

Thank you, will try

 

[Arc]

Thank you, will try

You are to bring the ownership back to trusted installer . So run remove takeownership to the areas you have taken ownership at first .

 

[Blblr]

So run remove takeownership to the areas you have taken ownership at first .

how do i do that ?

 

[Arc]

I guess there is no way but using the Take Ownership of file - Vista Forums , method two ... to set it back .

 

[Blblr]

I have already done that a long time ago :| maybe i should try this TrustedInstaller - Restore as Owner - Vista Forums ?

 

[Arc]

I have already done that a long time ago :| maybe i should try this TrustedInstaller - Restore as Owner - Vista Forums ?

Exactly !

 

[Blblr]

Idk if im doing it right, but i remember i used take ownership on windows folder so im taking ownership as trusted installer and selected "Replace owner on subcontainers and objects" but i get this message "You do not have permission to read the contents of directory C:\Windows\CSC\v2.0.6. Do you want to replace the directory prmissions with permissions granting you Full Control ?

All permissions will be replaced if you press Yes." and then when i press yes "An error occured while applying security information to:

C:\Windows\CSC\v2.0.6

Acess is denied."

And some other like "C:\Windows\System32\drivers\eamonm.sys"

Should i continue and don't mind that i can't take ownership of those files ? ^^
