Hi,
I have two systems with file corruption issues. I will post them separately (desktop and laptop).
Desktop PC Name: MSI-Z87-RE
Problem found during routine maintenance:
Windows Powershell (Admin): I ran "sfc /scannow" and cbs.log reported issues.
Followed up by running "dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth".
Rebooted system, repeated process, issue persisted.
Repeated multiple times, issue persisted.
Unusual behaviors recently:
Powersupply was defective in desktop, system took quite a bit of punishment from incorrect and failed restarts.
Faulty component was replaced.
AV reported suspicious behavior in Cloud files (related to Steam?). Repairs, deletions, quarantines initiated.
Both these problems seemed resolved, until doing system maintenance and the following was noticed:
Multiple games on Steam required file validation.
Windows System Image Backup could no longer create an image backup to an external hdd on a router.
A scan of "sfc /scannow" reported issues in cbs.log file, as indicated above.
History:
Microsoft Support was contacted when computers were *both* new (5 days old), for inability to shutdown OS.
Issue was resolved using an sfc scan and dism repair, on both computers.
Malware?
To date, no scans have indicated malware presence, except for the suspicious Cloud file behavior, listed above.
This suspicious behavior was only detected on the desktop.
When both computers were new, and old PC on intranet was found to have multiple malware, so it was DC'd.
An illegal attempt was made, and failed, to gain access to my login credentials for the new PCs/OS/UserID.
I have tried multiple malware tools, incase one was missing something:
MBAM, Panda Cloud Cleaner, SUPERAntiSpyware, Symantec/Norton. View attachment CBS.zipView attachment SFCFix.txtView attachment CBS.zipView attachment SFCFix.txt
