I have installed Windows 8.1 pro a couple times now and it keeps telling me that there are issues with SFC that cannot be resolved. I am an administrator and don't have access to certain files but get confused by the permissions in Windows. I am just trying to make the transition from Windows 7 to Windows 8 and Microsoft is not making it easy. I have done a clean install a couple times over and am thoroughly frustrated. I wanted to see if anyone is able to help me try to just figure this out.

I am trying to run this because of side by side configuration error messages when trying to run executable installers. So far, Windows 8/8.1 is nothing but a hassle.
 
Hello khaneliman, welcome to Sysnative!

Where did you get this disc/ISO? The fact that the problem remains over a clean install suggests that the ISO may be corrupt, or the disc damaged.

Here is the corrupt file:

Hi, thanks for the reply and taking a look into it. I got he ISO from Dreamspark and created a boot camp assistant drive with it. I am re downloading it as well, just to see if it might be the case of a bad download.

I am running sfc /scannow right now. The script kept failing and my computer would act up. I then realized Avast DeepScan active protection was blocking it because it was an "unknown" script. I disabled that, ran it again, and it worked.
 
Yay. It told me there are no integrity violations. Thank you very much! I am going to download a new copy of my iso from dreamspark and replace the copy I had on my external hard drive.
 
Alternatively, you could just check the hash of the ISO you have.

The SHA1 hash should be: BC2F7FF5C91C9F0F8676E39E703085C65072139B

You're most welcome for the help :) Your SFC issue is all sorted now, so you're good to go!

Tom
 
No problem! I was stuck on a 2Mb/s line for years so I always think of the ways that require the least bandwidth now :lol: I've got a 60Mb/s line now and I'm loving it!

HashTab is excellent:

HashTab tool to quickly find file hash information

Install it, right click on the ISO, then click on the File Hashes tab and it will list the various hashes of the file. I can't remember if SHA-1 is enabled by default, but if it isn't then just click on Settings and select it.

Tom
 
Damn, very nice internet connection. Thanks for the convenient hash tool. I love the direct integration with Windows Explorer. The only issue that I'm having currently is fan control with my retina macbook pro right now. I think that's what's causing my computer to freeze up, anyway.
 
Sorry to keep popping up with questions. I also wondered what all the side-by-side configuration errors I am getting are. I have been using the same executables to install my applications with Windows 7. However, since installing Windows 8, they pop up error messages. It constantly says this side-by-side configuration error message.
 
Uninstalled them all at once, then installed them all one by one restarting after each install. Still giving me the error message. However, when I download the files from within Windows 8 it doesn't give the error. Is it just a compatibility thing between Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 downloads?
 
Hi,

Can you zip up and upload this file for me please:

C:\Windows\System32\winevt\Logs\system.evtx
