Hi Welcome to Sysnative,

You need to provide the COMPONENTS hive for us to check...

Retrieve the Components Hive

1. Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\Config and locate the COMPONENTS file
2. Please copy the COMPONENTS 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. If file will is too large to upload to the forum please share the file using a service like Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive, or upload to www.sendspace.com and just provide the link for the file here

Hi,

Replace Components Hive Manually

!!! WARNING !!! The following fix is only relevant for this system and no other, applying this fix on another computer will not work and most likely will cause problems...

1. Download COMPONENTS2.ZIP and save it to the Desktop.
2. Right-click on it and select Extract all.... Make sure the "Show extracted files when complete" is checked and click Extract.
3. Now you have the COMPONENTS file that we will be using to replace your current one.
4. Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\config
5. Right-click on the current COMPONENTS file and select rename. Rename it to COMPONENTS.bad.
   Note: If you get an error that the file is in use, reboot your computer and then try again.
6. Take the file from the Components folder on your desktop and paste it into C:\Windows\System32\config

Hi SleepyDude,

Anything went fine, I was able to update the system to actual state.

I have another VM Machine, same date, same problem because of failures of the cluster system and no backups from before 03-2020.

IT would be great if you could check this machine too.

Thanks for this great work!!

Good morning,

SleepyDude, yes you did it again, anything works perfect again. I could install all actual patches, System is running fine.
Thanks a lot for this fast response and solving both problems.
