[SOLVED] Corruptions with sfc /scannow and 0x800f081f error

scottmandu · Nov 27, 2023

After doing a sfc /scannow I got a message that there were some corrupt files. Tried a restorehealth command and got an Error: 0x800f081f message. Attached are my CBS.zip and ComponentsScanner.txt file. Any help would be greatly appreicated.

Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\Config and locate the COMPONENTS file.
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.
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.
The file will likely be too large to upload here, if so please upload to a file sharing service.
Examples of services to upload to are WeTransfer and TransferKit and SendFileOnline

Please post me the link to the file

Nothing being flagged in your latest CBS.log, so please try updating your computer again.

If successful please let me know.
