My computer failed during a Windows 10 update with error 0x80070246. Since then, Windows Modules Installer Worker has been causing high CPU load, and my computer has been very slow unless I disable the Windows Modules Installer service (TrustedInstaller).

When I try sfc /scannow, I get "Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation."

I have tried SFCFix, but I get a DISM error #582 when it is at 4.5% that says an illegal character was encountered. If I press a key, SFCFix continues and the resulting logfile shows the following:

SFCFix version 3.0.1.0 by niemiro.
Start time: 2019-06-04 20:09:52.508
Microsoft Windows 10 Build 17763 - amd64
Not using a script file.

I have attached my CBS log. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have completed the test with no errors (4 passes). For some reason it did not save the HTML report to my usb.
 
Step#1 - Capture Process Monitor Trace
1. Download and run Process Monitor. Leave this running while you perform the next steps.
2. Try updating the system just like you have in the past.
3. Stop Process Monitor as soon as the it fails. You can simply do this by clicking the magnifying glass on the toolbar as shown below.

4. Select the File menu...Save... and save the file to your desktop. This is likely the default location. The name (unless changed) will be LogFile.PML. This is fine.
5. Zip up and provide the link to the LogFile.PML file as well as your CBS.log Examples of services to upload to are Dropbox or OneDrive or SendSpace.
 
Retrieve Components Hive
1. Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\Config and locate the COMPONENTS file.
2. Please copy this file to your desktop.
Note: If you receive an error that this file is in-use, simply reboot your computer and try again.
3. Right-click on this file on your desktop and select Send To...Compressed (zipped) folder. This will create a file named COMPONENTS.ZIP on your desktop.
4. The file will likely be too large to upload here so please upload to a file sharing service and just provide the link here.
 
Step#1 - FRST Fix
NOTICE: This script was written specifically for this user, for use on that particular machine. Running this on another machine may cause damage to your operating system
1. Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your Desktop.
Note: You need to run the 64-bit Version so please ensure you download that one.
2. Download the attached fixlist.txt and save it to the Desktop.
Note. It's important that both files, FRST64 and fixlist.txt are in the same location or the fix will not work (in this case...the desktop).
3. Run FRST64 by Right-Clicking on the file and choosing Run as administrator.
4. Press the Fix button just once and wait. If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run.
5. When finished FRST64 will generate a log on the Desktop (Fixlog.txt). Please post the contents of it in your reply.
