Solved Sfc scannow problem

[Blblr]

And i can't change permission for thrusted installer to allow full control for windows folder

 

[Arc]

It is not possible to change the permissions of the entire windows folder manually ... whereas the take ownership registry entry does the reverse thing easily . That is why we try to not take the ownership of the entire windows folder .

May we look back at the root of the problem for a while ? What is the program you was trying to install ?

Oh... stupid me... ok, well i tried to install qvivo QVIVO Cloud Manager and it stops at 1 or 0% left to install and i get this error "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" i tried with my another pc which has windows 7 64bit installed too and it works perfectly.

 

[Arc]

I have never used such a program

The problem might be with the particular installer file itself. You should try another instance of the program installer to be sure .

Its like windows media center

I don't understand you you want me to try another programor(i tried, other programs work fine) or to try download the same one from another source and try installing it again(if so, i tried already and i get the same error)
I tried older version 0.99 alpha 14 and it works but i can't create an account with the old version

Btw i told you i tried with my other pc with the same installer and it worked, but not with this one.

Whatever it may be, it sounds to be a problem not with your system . Probably somebody experienced with QVIVO may help us

 

[Blblr]

i don't get it ? if its not a problem with my system then why it works on my other pc? i'll try to contact them but i doubt they will help me.

Lol funny thing, i get the error at the end when the qvivo is almost installed and i can open it(the program qvivo) and use it, but when i press ok the installation rolls back and the program is gone lol so the program installs normaly i guess, there is something else that i can't install ? xD

This should work. Trying to run sfc/scannow and response is "Windows Resource - Microsoft Answers

 

[Blblr]

@cyclic thanks for reply, but did you read this thread ? i tried those methods and im getting "Windows Resource Protection could not start the repair service" and i don't have a restore point.

Hm... someone had the same problem and he fixed it by removing antivirus program? "
I tried all of the above and none worked for solving my problem.
I has already tried running as Administrator etc... and the 3 methods proposed above - but none of them solved my problem.
In the end I gave up and I went for a completely new install of Windows - and went for Windows Enterprise (a computer tecnician did this for me as!). All the programs / data etc.. were gone and after the install just Windows operating system was on the laptop.
Just after installing I tried running SFC/Scannow (as an administrator from the command prompt of course) and it ran perfectly !! Nothing else had been installed at this point .
Then I thought I'd get my security installed before any viruses infected me - so I installed McAfee.
Then I tried running SFC/Scannow again and gues what ??? It didn't work !! I got the same problem described above.
So, mystery solved (for me at least!!) McAfee was interfering with the SFC/Scannow.
I've now installed all my programs again (Office, etc..) and am using just Microsoft Security Essentials for protection and without McAfee the SFC/Scannow works!
ps. McAfee also seemed to be interferring with installation of another program called ArcGIS (which is why I wanted to run the SFC/Scannow in the first place). I was also able to successfully install that program after removing McAfee." I have nod32 should i disable it or remove it(i don't want to do that :S)?

You mean method 1: try to do a system restore point, well i don't have one, theres no restore point to restore to, i told you that in my previous post.
methot 2: doesn't work either i get this message "a system repair pending requires a reboot to complete"
method 3: doesn't work either i get "Windows Resource Protection could not start the repair service"

Any other ideas?

We're up to 2-3 problems solved per week now by uninstalling MucAfee, the absolute worst AV imaginable.

I don't know why anyone would pay for such crap when the two best AV's Microsoft Security Essentials and Avast6 are free!

If this is all HP is preinstalling on their rigs then their name is also mud.

Mr. MucAfee must be buying them a new Rolls every year too.

 

[Blblr]

lol i agree with you 100% in my opinion Microsoft Security Essentials is the best av ;P but since i got eset smart security for free i don't use it anymore.

WOW awesome! after trying to fix sfc /scannow it made everything worse... now aparentyl i don't have acess to my other non windows local drives for example when i try to extract a .rar file it says i don't have acess to do so( i can only extract to my desktop or my c drive where windows is installed) and i can't download torrents. ;D im so dam lucky.

 

[gregrocker]

If you're downloading a lot of torrents then you my be infected. Run Malwarebytes full scan.

 

[Blblr]

No, not much and im not infected i ran av scan and it didn't detect any virus

 

[Blblr]

Hm... now trying to uninstall apple software update i get the same erro
