Scanning Windows Packages Files missing
« on: November 27, 2015, 05:08:34 pm »
I'm having issues on my Windows 10 Pro 10.0.10586  (32-bit) HP Pavilion 23.  While running Windows Repair v3.7.0 - Pre-Scan, I have missing files shown below:

These Files Are Missing: (Total: 4)
C:\WINDOWS\servicing\Packages\Microsoft-Windows-RetailDemo-OfflineContent-Content-en-us-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~x86~~10.0.10586.0.cat
C:\WINDOWS\servicing\Packages\Microsoft-Windows-RetailDemo-OfflineContent-Content-en-us-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~x86~~10.0.10586.0.mum
C:\WINDOWS\servicing\Packages\Microsoft-Windows-RetailDemo-OfflineContent-Content-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~x86~~10.0.10586.0.cat
C:\WINDOWS\servicing\Packages\Microsoft-Windows-RetailDemo-OfflineContent-Content-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~x86~~10.0.10586.0.mum
4 Combined Problems were found with the packages files, these files need to be replaced.......

I have googled these files with no results.  What could be my next step.....

Thanks

I dont have those files either, looks like they where from an older version.

You can just ignore those for now and continue with the repairs, in safe mode of course and also see how windows updates do after :-)

Cleared all errors with a reload [setup.exe] from the Win10_1511_English_x32.iso...Basically just like an upgrade, replacing the windows files only, from a Windows 10 iso I downloaded from TechBench....the demo files are still in the sfc.log

OMG finding this one was hell lmao but i got them for you here is a quote from  one of Shane's previous posts on another thread about the steps to take to apply these files.


First grab the zip file off this page and apply the reg file it in to add the take owner ship to the right click menu in explorer.
http://www.tweaking.com/articles/pages/add_quottake_ownershipquot_to_right_click_menu_in_vista_amp_7,1.html

Once that is done go to C:\Windows\servicing\ and right click on Packages and click on take ownership. You will now be able to copy the files into that folder.

I have attached the missing files, extract the files out of the attached zip file and put them in the C:\Windows\servicing\Packages\ folder.

Then run my pre-scan again, put a check on the box to have it add the cat files back to the database. :wink:

(THIS REPAIR IS USER SPECIFIC IF YOU ARE HAVING ISSUES WITH MISSING CAT OR MUM FILES MAKE A POST IN COMPUTER HELP AND I WILL HUNT DOWN THOSE FILES FOR YOU) :cheesy:
