Windows 7 update error 80070002, "usual" rescue options not working.

Windows 7 update error 80070002, "usual" rescue options not working.

Dear Forum,

the windows update service on my laptop only returns error 80070002. It seems to be a common problem for a lot of people, however most of the standard steps to take do not seem to work for my machine.

CHKDSK is ok.

sfc /scannow however refuses to work. Even with admin privileges, it says that "resource protection" wont allow it to run. If started from windows recovery mode, sfc claims that there is another operation pending and a reboot is needed, first. Needless to say, this other operation is stuck in limbo.

All other methods of manually deleting/reseting the update logs, including the .bat from this website, have failed.

Even returning to a system restore point brought no change.

The last known update to work was for net framework.

I'm not sure where to go from here since i figure my attempts might have already made the situation worse.

Had to use a third party filesharing provider:

Logs.zip

Please post the requested files anyhow.

Wikisend: free file sharing service

Anything else that could be useful?

Here's what appears to be the problem...

You're getting that set of errors repeatedly at every boot - and various retires as well
Of the 71000+ lines of data in the CBS.log, over 32000 relate to this one error!


Let's try this...

Please open an elevated Command Prompt, and run the following command,

REG LOAD HKLM\COMPONENTS C:\Windows\System32\config\COMPONENTS
REG QUERY HKLM\COMPONENTS


post the results.


Here are some instructions to make life easier
1) To open an Elevated Command Prompt Window (the ECP window), click on Start, All Programs, Accessories – then right-click on Command Prompt, and select Run as Administrator. Accept the UAC prompt.
2) To run the commands easier, highlight the block of commands, and right-click on the highlight – select Copy. In the CP Window, click on the black/white icon at top left – select Paste. The commands will run but may not complete the last command, so hit the Enter Key once.
3) To copy the results... click on the Black/White icon in the top left, and select Edit... 'Select All', and hit the Enter key - then use Ctrl+V or r-click+Paste to paste it into your response.

That looks perfectly normal....

Please run this command, and post the results

That may explain it!
The TrustedInstaller account should have some permissions there, as should the Users account -
I need to do some checking before attempting to post a fix, as I get conflicting results on my own system.
Please open Windows Explorer and navigate to the C:\Windows\System32 folder
right-click on the 'config' folder, and select Properties
Click on the Security tab, then the Advanced button

Take a screenshot, and post it

 

[mrhat111]

Trusted Installer does seem to only have read and "special" permissions here. User account has some, but nobody has full permissions.

 

[NoelDP]

I actually asked for the permissions on the config folder rather than System32
All the above are OK - and it looks as if it's my machine that's a little odd, as I checked a fresh install in VM, and it looks like SYSTEM has ownership and full control, as does Administatoren - with no TrustedInstaller in sight on the COMPONENTS files.

back to the drawing board again

I'll see what I can come up with later and post back

 

[mrhat111]

Ok so just to be complete.

Sry for long reaction time on my end.

 

[NoelDP]

No problem - we all have lives to lead!
That looks OK.
I'll have to have a think about what to do next.

 

[mrhat111]

Shameless selfbump...

 

[NoelDP]

bruises accepted
I have to say I really don't have too much of a clue here.
that doesn't mean I'm giving up - it simply means it's going to take a while!

I'll come back when/if I get a clue!

Shout if it's not early enough - I have a lot of threads to deal with.

 

[mrhat111]

Its not too big of a deal.

Actually, its my mother's machine whom I'm visiting right now, going to catch a plane back as early as tomorrow morning tho...
