[SOLVED] CBS File Corruption

[BenjiYoda]

Hi Sysnative folks!

Lately my computer has been having random issues where I can't seem to pinpoint the problem. I was doing some digging because I have had trouble in the past with my SSD, and decided to hop onto command prompt and run "sfc /scannow." Once it completed, I got the message "Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them."

My question is, how do I go about repairing this? I have upgraded my O.S. from Windows 8 to 8.1, and so I don't have a bootable Windows 8.1 disk to repair it with.

Thoughts? Ideas? Magnificent advice?

Here is my latest CBS log: View attachment CBS.zip

Hello Benjiyoda, welcome to Sysnative!

Here's some (hopefully magnificent!) advice:

DISM /RestoreHealth Scan

Warning: this fix is specific to the user in this thread. No one else should follow these instructions as it may cause more harm than good. If you are after assistance, please start a thread of your own.

1. Right-click on the Start
   
   button and select Command Prompt (Admin)
2. When command prompt opens, Copy (Ctrl+C) and Paste (Right-click > Paste) the following command into it, then press Enter
   
   Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
   
   

SFC Scan

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 commands into it, press enter after each
   
   sfc /scannow
   
   Wait for this to finish before you continue
   
   copy %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log %userprofile%\Desktop\cbs.txt
   
   
4. This will create a file, cbs.txt on your Desktop. Please attach this to your next post.

Tom,

I really appreciate the quick reply. I ran everything and the sfc scan ended with "Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations."

In any case, I've attached the new, zipped cbs file.

Are there more steps that I need to take?

I'm a little concerned as to why the file corruption happened in the first place. As I mentioned in initial post, I've been suspicious of my SSD.

Any other ideas?

Hi BenjiYoda,

That's fixed everything, so you're good to go now!

You'll also be glad to hear that this issue isn't caused by a problem with your computer and is a very common problem we get here; so common, in fact, that one of our members kindly wrote a guide to fix this: https://www.sysnative.com/forums/wi...prncacla-inf-corruptions-windows-8-8-1-a.html

As for the cause, we're still not 100% on it but it's very unlikely that this corrupt file will ever cause people problems.
