Windows Update & SFC errors
Normally never have a huge issue with this machine and it's been running steady for years; but after uninstalling some software using Revo Uninstaller I think I was too trigger happy in removing files and registry entries perhaps.
Could be unrelated, could be related... let me explain the situation.
Earlier today I was unable to make restore points, that's now fixed with various troubleshooting I've been doing for most of the day.
I'm also unable to do an SFC /scannow with the error being given to me:
.Code:Windows Resource Protection could not start the repair service
Manually starting the Windows Module service does not work and I've tried almost every method available via google.
The other problem is that Windows Update simply refuses to update with error 80004002 being thrown at me.
I've tried updating the Windows Update Agent manually but get the error:
I've also tried the SURT and that gets to the end of its process but throws a different error regarding Windows Update at me, 0x80070005.Code:WIndows Update Agent Installer encountered unrecoverable error.
Tried so many different fixes from all over the google-net today I've lost track of which ones I have and haven't tried so happy to try anything else that can be offered.
CBS zip at the link below, can't do an SFC scan so can't post results.
