Hi there

Unfortunately I have another machine with an issue installing the monthly CUs. Hopefully I've collated the required info, I've attached two .zip files containing the CBS.log and the COMPONENTS hive + ComponentScanner.txt. I'm hoping that somebody can help me again as Peter kindly did last time.

Many thanks in advance and please let me know if you need any more info.

Cheers

Ollie

Hello,

Remove Update Manually
  1. Click on the Start button and in the search box, type Command Prompt.
  2. When you see Command Prompt on the list, right-click on it and select Run as administrator.
  3. When command prompt opens, copy and paste the following command into it, then press enter.
    wusa /uninstall /KB:4530702
  4. Let me know if it says it was successful or if there are any errors.
 
Hi Peter,

Unfortunately that didn't work

This has started out identically to the last problem you were nice enough to help me with so I've followed your next set of instructions from last time (hopefully that was the right thing to do!)

FRST Registry Search
  1. Click the Start button and choose Control Panel.
  2. In the upper right corner ensure the View by: is set to Category.
  3. Select the Programs group.
  4. Click the Turn Windows features on or off link. This will bring up the Server Manager dialog.
    Note: This loads your components hive which is what we want. Please keep this dialog open while you perform the remaining steps. You can minimize it if you wish but keep it open.
  5. Download the Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your Desktop:
    64-bit: Downloading Farbar Recovery Scan Tool
    Note: Your antivirus program may report FRST incorrectly as an infection. If so, disable the real-time protection when downloading and running FRST.
  6. Right-click on the file FRST64.exe and choose Run as administrator.
  7. Copy and paste KB4530702 into the Search box and click the Search Registry button.
  8. When the scan is complete, a message will display that 'SearchReg.txt' is saved in the same folder FRST was started from. Notepad will open this file also. Close Notepad and attach the file 'SearchReg.txt' to your next reply.
  9. You may close any remaining open windows now.

Thanks again

Ollie

  1. Download the attachment fixlist.txt and save it to your desktop.
  2. Right-click on FRST64.exe and select "Run as administrator".
  3. Press the Fix button.
  4. The tool will now process fixlist.txt.
  5. If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run.
  6. When finished, a log called Fixlog.txt will appear in the same directory the tool is run from.
  7. Attach the logfile Fixlog.txt to your next reply.

Step 2:
Restart the machine.
Run the command sfc /scannow in an elevated commandprompt and report the result.
If it fails, copy the file C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\cbs.log to your desktop.
Zip the copied file and attach the zipped cbs.log to your next reply.

Hi Peter

Apologies for the delay in response, I've been on holiday. I applied the fixlist.txt and then ran sfc /scannow but unfortunately it failed

I have attached the Fixlog and the CBS.log.

Many thanks

Hi Peter

Thanks for coming back to me. Unfortunately the sfc /scannow run failed again so I've attached both logs you asked for.

Thanks Peter, FRST64 seemed to make the change OK but same SFC error. I've attached the requested logs.

It looks like SFC found an issue elsewhere.

Hi Peter

Unfortunately it doesn't think that update is installed

Hi Peter

Sorry I never came back on this. I did run the commands but I didn't get any results and forgot to post them back. I've attached the SearchReg.txt but it didn't find anything

I have attached a .zip file with the CBS log and also the DISM one in case you need it (as it was mentioned in the error).

Thanks
