Unzipped to desktop, a Windows folder on desktop, yes?

The SURT tool I have from MS is Windows6.1-KB947821-v34-x64.msu, is this correct?

 

[Snick]

Yes correct SURT Tool.
Well, so much for SURT finding folder on desktop. Didn't happen!
Download View attachment 405114 and place it on your desktop
Download SFCFix.exe by Niemiro place it on your desktop
Drag and Drop SFCFixScript onto SFCFix and release mouse button.

[DrCos]

here it is

 

[Snick]

Would you please check and see if this path was created.

C:\Windows\Windows\servicing\Packages
At C:\Windows what is the date of the windows folder at this location. If it is today, I goofed on the script.
May have to change script. It appears that it created a Windows folder in the Windows folder and that shouldn't happen.

C:\Windows\Windows\servicing\Packages

 

[DrCos]

You are correct, there is a Windows folder in the Windows folder, dated today 8/27

 

[Snick]

Thought So. Must have been up too late last night studying for upcoming IT exam.
Here's the batch file to remove the boo boo

View attachment Remove Incorrectly Placed Folder.zip

Extract and run please.

Here's the corrected zip with replacement files. Place it on your desktop and Drag and Drop onto SFCFiix

2 KBs are listed as missing however, M$ update catalog says they don't apply to your system.
Download View attachment SFCFixScript_.zip and place on desktop
Drag and drop it onto SFCFix
run SURT Tool
Post logs please.

[DrCos]

Here are the logs after the new fix

 

[Snick]

Well, that looks much better. The two KBs that appear multiple times are not applicable to your computer. The are for Vista and Windows 8.1. Resetting the Software Distribution folder (corrupt entries for the aforementioned KBs), actually renaming should correct the problem. You want to download and run option 1 from Shawn's tutorial.

Windows Update - Reset

 

[DrCos]

After resetting WU with batch file, and rebooting.

Error 80073701, again
CBS.log zipped is too big, file on OneDrive

[Snick]

CBS file is so big I can't open it. Should have been archived in persist zips.
In CBS folder, are there CBS persist zip folders?

Nic

 

[DrCos]

The latest one is from this morning, before all this (attached)

Tried to install a second time, smaller CBS.log attached in zip
