"These Package files need to be replaced" Could somebody help please?
Firstly an apology if I have put this in the wrong section.
I have recently set up an external hard drive to take a backup on the first of every month. I was guided through this process and the first month all went well.
On the first of this month (the second backup) it repeatedly failed to complete and gave my several error messages which I stupidly didn't write down ... sorry.
So I turned to my trusty Tweaking.com Windows Repair program which has helped me before. I carefully followed the instructions on turning my pc off, draining the residual electricity and starting in safe mode, backing up and doing the pre-scans.
It tell me the following message and I am lost ....
"Combined problems were found with the Package files, these files need to be replaced (these mainly only effect installing Windows updates).
The SFC (System File Checker) doesn't scan and replace some of these files so you may need to replace them manually".
No idea what that means or where I would find those files (I don't have a disc) and am hoping some kind person here could offer some guidance please?
