Thank you, that was helpful.
I was able to identify 12 more bitshifts within 5 registry keys. I've documented them at the end of this post. You don't have to read the details if you don't wish but wanted it here for historical reasons. Please do the following two steps.
Step#1 - Replace Manually
1. Download the attached file named
COMPONENTS2.ZIP and save to your
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 we 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.bad2.
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 Components2 folder on your desktop and paste it into
C:\Windows\System32\config
Step#2 - DISM /RestoreHealth Scan
Warning: this fix is specific to the user in this thread. No one else should follow these instructions as it may cause more harm than good. If you are after assistance, please start a thread of your own.
- Right-click on the Start button and select Command Prompt (Admin)
- When command prompt opens, Copy (Ctrl+C) and Paste (Right-click > Paste) the following command into it, then press Enter
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
- When DISM finishes scanning your component store, zip up and attach your CBS log to your next post:
C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log
