[SOLVED] Review/Repair

[latitude64]

WIN7 SP1 w/OFFICE ENTERPRISE 2007 - x64 DELL Latitude E6400 :: My browser froze when trying to access a website's email link. iexplore.exe began highlighting in blue as "suspended" over and over again in Task Manager processes. When terminated, it would return again and again as "suspended" as long as Win7 was running. I had a blank screen when trying to access features to turn IE off. I did two restore points, and an image restore from around Oct. of last year. The suspended iexplore persisted, but I had access to the windows features from the image restore. I deleted MS EDGE browser, turned off Internet Explorer in features, and that ended the continual listing of the suspending process of iexplore.exe.
I ran SFC and DISM commands that I was finding autochk.exe and display.dll.mui were corrupted in the STORE also, as well as multiple "fail" errors in opening update packages, or wrong package versions (see CBS log).
I have run a Trend Micro anti-virus full length scan and found no virus for which I was anticipating the autochk.exe as a Trojan. I also ran the following after running the SUR tool:

...and lastly, I did a final SFC that you will note for the last entry of the CBS log. (one of the CBSPersist.log files was removed from the ZIP file so that it would fit the uploading limit 30Mb) Win7 appears to be working as it always has - but without IE and EDGE now.

This procedure appears to have succeeded very well.

As can be seen in the following scannow, the SFC reports a clean bill of system integrity after the Sysnative niemiro scripted fix was executed.



A current review of the attached CBS log for May 5, 2024 will reveal no error codes, no "failed to open packages", and no corrupted files or STORE catalogs.

I will monitor this repair for a week or two while cleaning files, defrag, and another scannow for integrity before I generate another Image restore backup onto a CD-caddy hard drive to replace the previous image - which was apparently corrupted also.

Are there any objections to deleting most of this folder content - less the current May 5th log data to set this repair activity anew ?



This was a very pleasant experience in getting through this malady.

Great, job well done.

Are there any objections to deleting most of this folder content

Removing system files, even log files, is not recommended. They do not consume much disk space in this case so I would keep them. Better safe than sorry.

Should we keep this thread open for the next 2 weeks while you perform some cleanup or can we mark this thread as solved ?

 

[latitude64]

Yes, we can mark this thread as solved herein.

I kept the CBS files in the log folder as recommended, and made a new image in replacing the old one. This latest SFC is still reporting good heath integrity :


When i get some free time, I most certainly will return to browse this intellegent forum.
Thanks again for the help,
and we'll meet again,
ed

 

[PeterJ]

I'm glad we could help. Thread is marked as solved.

Take care.
