Hello all,

I have been trying to update my Windows 10 Home Version 1607(legitimate) for ages now. Some of the programs I would like to install require a newer update and I keep getting "Error 0x8007007e" every time I try. I have followed various websites advice and nothing seems to work. Is there any way to update Windows without the need to start over?

Thanks so much!
 
Thank you so much!

The SFC Scan was unsuccessful. It performed 89% of the verification and then said "Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation."
The SFCFix tool may have also been unsuccessful. Here is what is in the log file:

Hi

Please do the following.

GSmartControl
Follow the instructions below to check your SMART status with GSmartControl:

  • Download the portable version of GSmartControl and save it on your Desktop;
  • Extract the zip file to your Desktop. Open the folder gsmartcontrol-1.1.3-win64 which should be located on your Desktop and double-click gsmartcontrol.exe to launch the program.
  • Identify your drive in the list (if recognized by the tool), and hover your mouse over it.
  • You should see something called: SMART status. It will either read: Enabled, in which case you should do the following:
  • Double-click on it to bring up its window (usually you'll find your drive by its size or its brand name);
  • Go to the Self-Tests tab, then select Extended Self-test in the Test type drop-down list and click on Execute (this test can take a few hours to complete);
  • Once the test is over, the results will be displayed at the bottom of the window. Please copy and paste these results in your next reply or take a screenshot;
  • Also, go in the Attributes tab and if you have any entries highlighted in red or pink, take a screenshot of the GSmartControl window and attach it in your next reply;
  • Please note: If the SMART Status reads: Unsupported, stop and let me know.

Hi

When you ran the GSmartControl did you have any entries on the attributes tab highlighted in red or pink?
 
Hi

Please do the following.

Step#1 - ChkDsk Scan/Repair

1. Right-click your Start button and select Command Prompt (Admin). Answer Yes to allow if the User Account Control dialog comes up.
2. You should now have a black window open that you can type in to.
3. Please type chkdsk /r and then press enter. Note: There is a space after the command chkdsk and before the forward slash
4. You will get a prompt telling you chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use. Answer Y and hit enter to schedule the run at next boot. Reboot your machine.
5. Chkdsk will start to run. Please allow it to finish. You will know it is running when you see text as follows.

6. Download ListChkdskResult.exe by SleepyDude and save it on your desktop. If it's already downloaded to your desktop, just skip this step.
7. Right-click this file and select Run as administrator (Allow if prompted) and a text file will open (and also be saved on the desktop as ListChkdskResult.txt).
Please copy the contents of this file and paste into your next post.
