Good day, everyone.
I am having problems updating my Windows as well as my drivers on my laptop. With regards to the drivers, I cannot put in any usb or even a mouse or connect my cellphone as it will not pick up. I have tried resetting my laptop ,however it fails to. I have also tried to download the drivers manually and get the error "Configuration Registry Database Corrupt" when it is trying to install. I then decided that maybe I needed to update my Windows and when I tried to, that failed to (I am using Windows 10 home x64bit build 10240) . I attempted all the steps provided under the "Windows Update Forum Posting Instructions" and when I ran the SFC scan it said, "Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them". I then ran the SFCFix and Error: 0x800f081f came up. I will attach the SFCFix feedback and my CBSlog to this thread.
Assistance will be greatly appreciated

Hi!

GSmartControl
Follow the instructions below to check your SMART status with GSmartControl:


  • Download the portable version of GSmartControl and save it on your Desktop;
  • Extract the zip file to your Desktop. Open the folder gsmartcontrol-1.1.3-win64 which should be located on your Desktop and double-click gsmartcontrol.exe to launch the program.
  • Identify your drive in the list (if recognized by the tool), and hover your mouse over it.
  • You should see something called: SMART status. It will either read: Enabled, in which case you should do the following:
  • Double-click on it to bring up its window (usually you'll find your drive by its size or its brand name);
  • Go to the Self-Tests tab, then select Extended Self-test in the Test type drop-down list and click on Execute (this test can take a few hours to complete);
  • Once the test is over, the results will be displayed at the bottom of the window. Please copy and paste these results in your next reply or take a screenshot;
  • Also, go in the Attributes tab and if you have any entries highlighted in red or pink, take a screenshot of the GSmartControl window and attach it in your next reply;
  • Please note: If the SMART Status reads: Unsupported, stop and let me know.

Hi!

Step 1 - Replace Drivers Hive Manually

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. Download DRIVERS.ZIP and save to your desktop.
  2. Right-click on it and select Extract all.... Make sure the "Show extracted files when complete" is checked and click Extract.
  3. Now we have the DRIVERS file that we will be using to replace your current one.
  4. Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\config
  5. Right-click on the current DRIVERS file and select rename. Rename it to DRIVERS.bad.
    Note: If you get an error that the file is in use, reboot your computer and then try again.
  6. Take the file from the Drivers folder on your desktop and paste it into C:\Windows\System32\config
