Unfortunately both of these windows updates fail. (I'm also struggling with the Premier Opinions malware which doesn't uninstall when I try to remove it through "Programs and Features. Happy to create a new thread for that issue if it would be preferable).

My CBS zip file is too big to upload here. I've synced it with Google Drive. SFCfix log:

Many thanks in anticipation of your help!
 
Hello and welcome,

Let concentrate on that malware issue first.

1. Download the Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your Desktop:
64-bit: Downloading Farbar Recovery Scan Tool

2. Right-click to run the tool as administrator. When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
3. Note: Ensure that the Addition.txt check box is checked at the bottom of the form within the Optional Scan area.
4. Press the Scan button.
5. Please wait for the tool to finish. It will produce two logfiles called FRST.txt and Addition.txt in the same directory the tool is run from (which should be the desktop)
6. Post the logfiles FRST.txt and Addition.txt as attachment in your next reply.
 
Many thanks for your reply, Peter. I've attached the two files, as instructed. Please let me know if anything further is required. Thanks for your help.

Just to clarify, logmein doesn't appear to be installed on my machine any more.

Step 2:
Download the free version of
571bf1f0722ca-malwarebytes_v221.PNG
MalwareBytes Anti-Malware (website).
(A file called 'mb3-setup-consumer-x.xx.x.xxxx.exe' will be downloaded)
Double-click this file to launch the installer of Malwarebytes, let it complete.
Do not change any setting during the installation.

Disable the real-time protection of your antivirus program during the scan with Malwarebytes. Malwarebytes will be a lot faster to complete.

Start "Malwarebytes Anti-Malware", click on "Dashboard" and next on the button "Scan Now".
If updates are available these will be downloaded first, then the scan will start.
The scan can take some time so please be patient.

When finished and if threats are found. let Malwarebytes remove them.
If you're being asked to restart the machine, please do so.
Note: Enable the real-time protection of your antivirus program if not already done.
Click Reports in Malwarebytes.
Put a check mark at the latest scanreport, click View report, click Export en select Text File (*.txt).

Great. Malwarebytes did a nice cleanup.
Since that issue has been solved we can start with the Windows Update issue.

Check Windows Update again and report the result.
If it fails, run sfc /scannow again and attach the zipped cbs.log to your next reply.

I've gone back through the steps. Windows Update had already successfully installed KB4471318 before I ran it again but KB3126587 continues to fail. sfc /scannow gives the response "Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violation" again. I tried the dism scan but it doesn't appear to have had an effect.

The log file from SFCfix reads as follows:

Here is a link to the CBS zip.
 
Please do following:

FRST Registry Search
1. Click your Start button and choose Control Panel.
2. In the upper right corner ensure the View by: is set to Category.
3. Select the Programs group.
4. Click the Turn Windows features on or off link. This will bring up the Server Manager dialog.
Note: This loads your components hive which is what we want. Please keep this dialog open while you perform the remaining steps. You can minimize it if you wish but keep it open.

5. Right-click on the file FRST64.exe and choose Run as administrator.
6. Copy and paste KB2922229 into the Search box and click the Search Registry button.
7. When the scan is complete, a message will display that 'SearchReg.txt' is saved in the same folder FRST was started from. Notepad will open this file also. Close Notepad and attach the file 'SearchReg.txt' to your next reply.
8. You may close any remaining open windows now.
 
I need to have a look at the COMPONENTS hive.

Retrieve Components Hive
1. Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\Config and locate the COMPONENTS file.
2. 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. Note: If you find that you need to reboot and are unable to because this is a server then try Option#2 below.
3. 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.
4. The file will likely be too large to upload here so please upload to SendSpace and just provide the link here.



Option#2 (only if you are unable to follow the previous instructions)


  • Please download the Freeware RegBak from here: Acelogix Software - Download products
    You will find it at the bottom of the page that the link brings you to.
  • Go ahead and install this program and accept all the defaults. After the last install screen the program should open.
  • Click the New Backup button. Accept the defaults and simply click Start.
  • When it says Finished successfully, click the Close button.
  • This will bring you back to the main screen of the program. You will see one entry in this list with the date that you did it. Right-click on this line-item and select Explore Backup...
  • This will bring you into the folder where the backup was made. You should see a Users folder and a Windows folder along with a couple other files. Double-click on the Windows folder to open it. Then open the System32 folder and then config folder. You should see around 6 files in here, one of which is named COMPONENTS.
  • Copy the COMPONENTS file to your Desktop. If the COMPONENTS file does not exist, please fetch it instead from C:\Windows\System32\config\COMPONENTS.
  • Now right-click on the COMPONENTS file that is on your desktop and select Send to > Compressed (zipped) folder.
  • Then please upload the zip file (COMPONENTS.zip) to your favourite file sharing website (it will be too big to upload here). Examples of services to upload to are Filedropper or One Drive or SendSpace and then just provide the link in your reply.
  • You can close any open windows you have as well as the RegBak program now.

  4. Attach this log in your next reply.

Alternatively, if these instructions are unclear for you, you can follow the tutorial below.
