SFC Unable to repair Corruption Windows 8

emerysteele · Aug 29, 2016

I have a Windows 8 x64 desktop that has a bunch of corrupt system files. And the corruption is preventing me from updating to Windows 8.1.

Just wondering if someone would be so kind & create an SFCFix.zip for me. Here is the list of corrupt files, reported by SFCFix:

CORRUPT: C:\WINDOWS\winsxs\amd64_microsoft-windows-taskhost_31bf3856ad364e35_6.2.9200.16733_none_813d66a7e3f25e80\taskhostex.exe

Hi emerysteele. :welcome:

Read Windows Update Forum Posting Instructions (click) and provide the necessary (and missing) informations to the experts.

I.e., you should: export, zip/compress and attach here the entire CBS folder.

If the CBS compressed folder will be too large, you can check the second post on that thread (to use the sfcfix tool with a script) or you can use a (possibly fast) web service like MS OneDrive, Google Drive, DropBox, Box, Mega, Apple iCloud, Amazon Cloud Drive, and so forth...
