[SOLVED] MSDTC.LOG corrupt

ennig · Aug 31, 2016

Hello,

after a routine sfc /scannow found errors that couldn't be fixed, a subsequent SFCFix run reported a corrupt MSDTC.LOG which it couldn't fix either (SFCFix.txt is attached and my CBS log files are currently being uploaded)

I have no idea what to do, so any help would be greatly appreciated...

Thank you!

Good :) Now let's run SFC to see if the replacement is accepted.

System File Checker (SFC)
Follow the instructions below to run a SFC scan on your system and to provide the CBS log in your next reply;

On Windows Vista & 7, click on the Windows Start Menu, then enter cmd in the search box, right-click on the cmd icon and select

Run as Administrator
On Windows 8, drag your cursor in the bottom-left corner, and right-click on the metro menu preview, then select Command Prompt (Admin);
On Windows 8.1 and Windows 10, right click on the Windows logo in the bottom-left corner and select Command Prompt (Admin);
Enter the command below and press on Enter;
Code:
```
sfc /scannow
```
Note: There's a space between "sfc" and "/scannow";
Once the scan is complete, enter the command below and press on Enter
Code:
```
copy %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log "%userprofile%\Desktop\cbs.txt"
```
A file called cbs.txt will have appeared on your Desktop. Upload the file on Dropbox, Google Drive or OneDrive and post the download URL for it here;

Note: Please note that the CBS.log is volatile, which means that if you don't upload it after the SFC scan is completed, it won't have the information from the scan anymore. So archive it and upload it as soon as you can.

Looks like the fix worked :) Did you need anything else Windows Update and/or system file-wise?

ennig · Sep 5, 2016

No, that would be all

Thank you very much for your help!

No problem ennig, you're welcome!
