So before I could apply the fix I had turned off computer for the night. Next AM blue screen of death. I restored from a backup, still with lots of problems and now quite embarrassed to have to ask again. Also seems .net 2.8 is causing problems (a Quickbooks thing). I am not upgrading because I am old, I like Win 7, I like software that I OWN (do not pay yearly rent). I appreciate ANY help you can offer. Attached what I have. I have the FixDotNet20230430034309149.cab but cannot upload. If this is an impossible I do understand. With great gratitude.

I don't know how old this machine and it's system drive is. If more than 10 years you might be facing a hardware failure.
You already have a backup which is good.

You did not use the attached script in message #9. I made a small typo in the instructions (typed SFCFix.zip instead of SFCFix.txt) which is corrected.
Please read message #9 carefully and redo.
 
Again, deep gratitude. FYI I have new carefully monitored hard drives and SSD and check health regularly. The issue was me and a difficult program upgrade (X1 Search). Have you to thank for restoring my stuff. On my way to donations. Have a great last day of April. Krispin
 
Thanks for the info about the drives.
Please attach the resulting log file from message #9.
 
Good.
Follow the instructions below to run a new scan with the System Update Readiness Tool (SURT) and provide a log.
  1. Download SURT for your system. (Windows 7 SP1 x86)
  2. Once downloaded, execute the installer, and go through the installation (this process can take around 15-20 minutes).
  3. On completion, a log will be created in C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.log.
  4. Attach this log to your next reply.
Alternatively, if these instructions are unclear for you, you can follow the tutorial below.

Provide the Components Hive
1. Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\Config and locate the COMPONENTS file.
2. 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. Note: If you find that you need to reboot and are unable to because this is a server then try Option#2 below.
3. 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.
4. The file will likely be too large to upload here so please upload to Gofile or WeTransfer and just provide the link here.

Option#2 (only if you are unable to follow the previous instructions)

  • Please download the Freeware RegBak from here: Acelogix Software - Download products
     You will find it at the bottom of the page that the link brings you to.
  • Go ahead and install this program and accept all the defaults. After the last install screen the program should open.
  • Click the New Backup button. Accept the defaults and simply click Start.
  • When it says Finished successfully, click the Close button.
  • This will bring you back to the main screen of the program. You will see one entry in this list with the date that you did it. Right-click on this line-item and select Explore Backup...
  • This will bring you into the folder where the backup was made. You should see a Users folder and a Windows folder along with a couple other files. Double-click on the Windows folder to open it. Then open the System32 folder and then config folder. You should see around 6 files in here, one of which is named COMPONENTS.
  • Copy the COMPONENTS file to your Desktop. If the COMPONENTS file does not exist, please fetch it instead from C:\Windows\System32\config\COMPONENTS.
  • Now right-click on the COMPONENTS file that is on your desktop and select Send to > Compressed (zipped) folder.
  • Then please upload the zip file (COMPONENTS.zip) to your favourite file sharing website (it will be too big to upload here). Examples of services to upload to are Gofile or WeTransfer and then just provide the link in your reply.
  • You can close any open windows you have as well as the RegBak program now.
