I've got a full schedule tonight already - it'll have to wait until tomorrow before I can see about the fix protocol for these :(

Back then (I hope!)

This should create a new file on your desktop - csbreg.txt
Please compress it and upload the compressed file
I'll see what I can do then to create the fix script.

Here we go with the first attempt at a fix...
I've uploaded a file - csbac.zip - to my OneDrive at Noel's OneDrive
Please download and save it.
Right-click on the downloaded file, and select Extract all…
Extract the contained file to your SFCFix location - which will create a SFCFix.txt file there.

Open the SFCFix location in Windows Explorer - and drag the SFCFix.txt file over onto the SFCFix.exe file - this should force SFCFix to run the file
It will create a new log file - please upload that.

Now run the CheckSUR tool again (it may take a while)

Post the new CheckSUR.log file, and the CheckSUR.persist.log file.

Hmmm - SFCFix says that it processed the script, but there's no change in the output from the CheckSUR....

I'm going to have to think about that!

Sorry - bad weekend :(

I think it may be because you renamed the file, rather than extracting it - so SFCfix couldn't recognise the instructions.
Please follow the instructions in post #25 exactly, and see if anything changes.

I coulda sworn I got that right! - perhaps I'm out of date in my syntax.

I'll do some checking and get back to you tonight.

Perhaps we should check the content of the registry at the moment and see what we did with the remaining commands (I suspect another syntax error)

Please open an Elevated Command Prompt, and run the following commands

Code:

Hmm - not so much bad syntax, as stupidity :o

I goofed with the data type for the Visibility and CurrentState entries

Let's fix those before we move on to other things

I've uploaded a file - csbae.zip - to my OneDrive at Noel's OneDrive
Please download and save it.
Right-click on the downloaded file, and select Extract all…
Extract the contained file to your SFCFix location - which will create a SFCFix.txt file there.

Open the SFCFix location in Windows Explorer - and drag the SFCFix.txt file over onto the SFCFix.exe file - this should force SFCFix to run the file
It will create a new log file - please upload that.

Now run the CheckSUR tool again (it may take a while)

Post the new CheckSUR.log

with any luck, that'll clear the Packages errors, and we can work on the others.
