[SOLVED] 0x800f081f error on KB5013942

LambLord · May 10, 2022

Hi,
another error I can't resolve with Win Update. KB5013942 is failing and sfc scan isn't fixing, dism scans/the SFCfix tool are coming up with the 0x800f081f error that source files can't be found. Manual installation and update troubleshooter also not working. CBS files attached.

Any help appreciated very much.
CBS.rar

Hi,

Download the

Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your Desktop:

Download the attachment fixlist.txt and save it to your desktop.
Right-click on FRST.exe and select "Run as administrator".
Press the Fix button.
If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally.
When finished, a log called Fixlog.txt will appear in the same directory the tool is run from.
Post the logfile Fixlog.txt as attachment in your next reply.

Hi,

Open a elevated command prompt and run the following command, and copy - paste the result in your next post.

Code:

wmic qfe | find "KB5011831"

LambLord · May 12, 2022

There was no apparent result to that command. It just went back to:

Code:

C: \WINDOWS\system32>

Maxstar · May 12, 2022

1. Start the

Command Prompt as administrator.

Open the startmenu and type the command cmd.
After you find the Command Prompt, right click on it and select Run as Administrator.
Copy and paste the following into the Command Prompt and press enter.

Code:

reg load HKLM\COMPONENTS C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\COMPONENTS

2.Right-click on the file

FRST.exe and choose Run as administrator.

Copy and paste the following (code) into the Search box and click the Search Registry button.

Code:

KB5011831

When the scan is complete, a message will display that SearchReg.txt is saved in the same folder FRST was started from.
Post the logfile SearchReg.txt as attachment in your next reply.

Hi,

Upload your COMPONENTS hive.

Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\Config and locate the COMPONENTS file.
Please copy this file to your desktop.
Note: If you receive an error that this file is in-use, simply reboot your computer and try again.
Right-click on this file on your desktop and select Send To > Compressed (zipped) folder. This will create a file named COMPONENTS.ZIP on your desktop.
If the file is too large to upload here, upload the file to www.wetransfer.com and post the link in your next reply.

LambLord · May 13, 2022

I can't copy or zip COMPONENTS because it's open in System or in use.

Maxstar · May 13, 2022

Please restart the system and then try again.

LambLord · May 13, 2022

Okay, that worked:
