[SOLVED] First Post - Windows 7 Update Failure

Great. Run the following command again to see the current state.

SFC VerifyOnly
  • Run the command sfc /verifyonly in an elevated commandprompt and report the result.
  • If it fails, copy the file C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\cbs.log to your desktop.
  • Zip the copied file and attach the zipped cbs.log to your next reply.
 
Ran sfc /verifyonly and it completed with the message "Windows Resource Protection found integrity violations" so the CBS file is attached.

    wusa /uninstall /KB:4474419
  4. Let me know if it says it was successful or if there are any errors.
 
Ran the wusa command and it said "The update KB4474419 is not installed on this computer."
 
Ok.

FRST Registry Search

Computer restarted fine. Fixlog and SFCFix files are attached.

Just let me know when you think I should create a fresh system image.

Step 1:
Create a fresh image.

Step 2:
Install Update with DISM
  1. Download the update MSU here: https://catalog.s.download.windowsu..._b5614c6cea5cb4e198717789633dca16308ef79c.msu
  2. Copy the MSU file to a convenient location (such as C:\temp).
  3. Click on the Start button and in the search box, type Command Prompt
  4. When you see Command Prompt on the list, right-click on it and select Run as administrator
  5. When command prompt opens, copy and paste the following commands into it, press enter after each

    cd C:\temp
    replace C:\temp with your path if different

    expand windows6.1-kb4474419-v3-x64_b5614c6cea5cb4e198717789633dca16308ef79c.msu -f:* C:\temp

    DISM.exe /Online /Add-Package /PackagePath:C:\temp\windows6.1-kb4474419-v3-x64.cab

  6. You should receive the message:
    The operation completed successfully.
    Make sure to allow the computer to restart if prompted.
  7. If you receive any other message:
    Post a screenshot of the Commandprompt window.
    Zip and attach the file C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log
 
I did something that I hope does not set us back. Before creating the fresh image I ran Disk Cleanup and afterwards also ran Clean up system files. This system file clean up took some time and then when I restarted the computer it displayed the "Configuring Windows updates" message and took quite a while to restart. But it did restart fine.

I created a fresh image and that's where I'm at now. I checked the Windows Update and KB4474419 is one of the 7 important updates listed. Screen grab is attached. Should I proceed with Step 2 in message #635 or is there anything else you like me to check first?
