[SOLVED] Can't start SFCFix

[MrPlouf]

Hey all,

I have an issue with an update on my Windows Server 2016 Standard.
Then I decided to use DISM's command. Scan & check OK but DISM Restore doesn't work : source unavailable (online & offline with my iso).

I tried sfc /scannow and he can not repair.

I downloaded your SFCFix tool but he crash :


SFCFix version 3.0.2.1 by niemiro.
Start time: 2023-07-28 16:02:53.575
Microsoft Windows Server 10 Build 14393 - amd64
Not using a script file.




SFCFix version 3.0.2.1 by niemiro has encountered an unhandled exception.
Currently storing 0 datablocks.
Finish time: 2023-07-28 16:02:56.403

Any idea please ?

Many thanks,

Hi,

Step 1. Download

SFCFix and save it to your desktop.

Warning: This fix was written specifically for this system. Do not run this fix on another system.

• Save any work you have open, and close all programs.
• Download the attachment SFCFix.zip and save it to your desktop.
• Drag the SFCFix.zip file over the SFCFix.exe executable and release it.

• SFCFix will launch, let it complete.
• Once done, a file will appear on your desktop, called SFCFix.txt.
• Post the logfile (SFCFix.txt) as attachment in your next reply.

Step 2. Run the following DISM command and post the result. If it fails attach a new copy of the CBS log.

DISM /online /cleanup-image /RestoreHealth

Hey,

Thanks for your answer.
You can find the files in attchments.

I have got a question, where do you find the files you're sending us to fix these problems ?

Many thanks,

Hi,

I'm running multiple virtual machines to use as source to provide replacement files.
Are there any remaining issues or is everything up and running again?

Thanks for your quick answer.
No error from SFC & DISM, everything seems OK.
Just the update KB5028169 won't install from Windows Update, don't know why.

Many thanks,

Please attach the latest CBS logs after attempting to install KB5028169.

Hi,

You're welcome. Glad to hear that the updates can also be installed...

I can see WinSxS folder and understand your fix but i can't see Manifest folder on my server, how is working ?

The manifest folder can be found inside the WinSxS folder:
%SystemRoot%\WinSxS\
%SystemRoot%\WinSxS\Manifests
