[SOLVED] Fallout from HD failure - SFC could not fix [Windows 7 SP1 64 bit]

[dbdan22]

Hi and Happy New Year,

Had a minor HD failure (18 month old WD Black 1TB, really bummed about that, thought it was a reliable drive) on a Win 7 64 bit system.

Was able to recover all but 236 bad sectors to a new drive. But what files were those bad sectors in? Ay, there's the rub.

Ran a CHKDSK, found and fixed issues. But of course.

Then sfc /scannow

Beginning verification phase of system scan.
Verification 100% complete.
Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them.
Details are included in the CBS.Log windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For example
C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log

Ran SURT. Runs to completion. Windows Update works too.

But I'd just like to get a clean SFC /scannow.

Ran SFCFIX. It reports:

AutoAnalysis::
WARNING: Failed to get store name from identity name with return code 2 for component NetFx-MSCORWKS_DLL and file mscorwks.dll. File is reported as corrupt by SFC.
CORRUPT: mscorwks.dll of component NetFx-MSCORWKS_DLL.

SFC log and CBS folder are at https://1drv.ms/u/s!AnHOxq7pxsngjDyruOpd5p_yfU-5

Thanks in advance.
