[w00tw00t]

Hi all,

I have a problem with windows update (Code 80070BC9) on one of my Server 2012 R2 VMs which i cant fix myself.
Resetting Windows Update didn't help.

sfc /scannow -> No errors found
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth -> "Error: 6801. Transaction support within the specified resource manager is not started or was shut down due to an error."
SFCFix -> No errors found

Logs: https://seafile.rlp.net/d/6b1b32a586a94939a3dd/

Thanks for any help!

Hi SleepyDude,


thanks for your help.

Since it is not an English system, I have translated the log into English. (Fixlog_translated.txt)

Should I delete the files in %SystemRoot%\System32\Config\TxR\* (eg. with a boot disk)?

Hi,

Thanks for the log.

We can force FRST to use English please rename the file FRST64.exe to FRST64English.exe

For the locked files we can use FRST now that I have the file names...

Hi,

Try to run Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth again and report the result.

 

[w00tw00t]

Dism still fails with "Error: 6801. Transaction support within the specified resource manager is not started or was shut down due to an error." (MSDTC is started - logs attached)
