Corrupt MSDTC.LOG and Media Samples

Mighty Joe · Jan 1, 2016

Hello and Happy New Year:wave:,

I was so glad to stumble upon the SFCFix tool. On its first run a few days ago it repaired 14 of my 30 corrupted files. I thought there was a chance if I ran it again, it would correct the remaining ones but it did not. I uploaded the CBS folder containing the log (I did not include the cabinet files because it exceeded the allowed file size). Below is my SFCFix log:

Hi Aura,

Thanks for your quick reply and solution! I think all is well now but please take a look below and let me know for sure. Btw, I had been having a lot of problems with Windows Update working consistently. Could the corrupt msdtc.log have been the culprit?

Corrupt files can be a reason why Windows Update isn't working, yes :) Let's see if SFC have anything to report.

System File Checker (SFC)
Follow the instructions below to run a SFC scan on your system and to provide the CBS log in your next reply;

On Windows Vista & 7, click on the Windows Start Menu, then enter cmd in the search box, right-click on the cmd icon and select

Run as Administrator
On Windows 8, drag your cursor in the bottom-left corner, and right-click on the metro menu preview, then select Command Prompt (Admin);
On Windows 8.1, right click on the Windows logo in the bottom-left corner and select Command Prompt (Admin);
Enter the command below and press on Enter;
Code:
```
sfc /scannow
```
Note: There's a space between "sfc" and "/scannow";
Once the scan is complete, enter the command below and press on Enter
Code:
```
copy %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log "%userprofile%\Desktop\cbs.txt"
```
A file called cbs.txt will have appeared on your Desktop. Upload the file on Dropbox, Google Drive or OneDrive and post the download URL for it here;

Note: Please note that the CBS.log is volatile, which means that if you don't upload it after the SFC scan is completed, it won't have the information from the scan anymore. So archive it and upload it as soon as you can.

Awesome :) Let's see if SURT have anything to report.

System Update Readiness Tool (SURT) - Scan
Follow the instructions below to run a scan with the System Update Readiness Tool (SURT) and provide a log;

Download the right version of SURT for your system;
- Your version of Windows is:
Once downloaded, execute the installer, and go throught the installation (this process can take around 15-20 minutes);
On completion, a log will be created in C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.log;
Attach this log in your next reply;

Alternatively, if these instructions are unclear for you, you can follow the tutorial below.

Mighty Joe · Jan 7, 2016

I'm not sure I followed your instructions correctly because there was no folder called "packages" when I unzipped the packs.zip; there was only the folder called "manifests." Also, CheckSur\winsxs\Manifests was not in my C:\Windows\Temp folder so I created it.

Here is the log result:

Alright, let's run a new SFC scan to see if the replacements are accepted.

System File Checker (SFC)
Follow the instructions below to run a SFC scan on your system and to provide the CBS log in your next reply;

On Windows Vista & 7, click on the Windows Start Menu, then enter cmd in the search box, right-click on the cmd icon and select

Run as Administrator
On Windows 8, drag your cursor in the bottom-left corner, and right-click on the metro menu preview, then select Command Prompt (Admin);
On Windows 8.1, right click on the Windows logo in the bottom-left corner and select Command Prompt (Admin);
Enter the command below and press on Enter;
Code:
```
sfc /scannow
```
Note: There's a space between "sfc" and "/scannow";
Once the scan is complete, enter the command below and press on Enter
Code:
```
copy %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log "%userprofile%\Desktop\cbs.txt"
```
A file called cbs.txt will have appeared on your Desktop. Upload the file on Dropbox, Google Drive or OneDrive and post the download URL for it here;

Note: Please note that the CBS.log is volatile, which means that if you don't upload it after the SFC scan is completed, it won't have the information from the scan anymore. So archive it and upload it as soon as you can.

FYI, I ran sfc /scannow yesterday and there were no corrupt files. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks again, Aura...
