[SOLVED] [7SP1 x64] SFC Fails to Repair a Corrupted File

[Harlon]

I am running on Windows 7-64 Home Premium. SFC /scannow fails to repair some files. I have run SFCFix and enclosed the requested files.

I have run chkdsk /r & all virus & malware scans error free.

Thanks for your prompt reply to my problem. I ran the initial script with sfcfix.exe, overlaid with sfcfix.zip. It ran and put the sfcfix.txt on my desktop. Unfortunately I did something wrong, & the file disappeared. I was unable to find it using an advanced file search. So I ran sfc /scannow, and the problem has been fixed! I copied & pasted the cmd to place the results in a file on the desktop, but it had a syntax error, so I found another way to send you a copy of it as follows:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]
Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
C:\windows\system32>sfc /scannow
Beginning system scan. This process will take some time.
Beginning verification phase of system scan.
Verification 100% complete.
Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.
C:\windows\system32>copy %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log %userprofile%\Desktop\cbs.txt
The syntax of the command is incorrect.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Not that it matters now, but I was unable to understand the latter part of this instruction:

1. Copy (Ctrl+C) and Paste (Ctrl+V) the contents of this file into your next post for me to analyse please - put [CODE][/CODE] tags around the log to break up the text.

I am assuming that this problem is fixed, so thank you so much for your help! You certainly made my day. I have been working on this problem, off and on for several weeks, but finally lucked onto your website. Now I have a BSOD on another computer, so I will be contacting you later about that.

Thanks,
Harlon

Don't worry about that part. It just something to make it easier to read. Glad to have helped. Regarding your BSOD issue, we have a special subforum related to that.

Take care.
