Windows 7 Component Store Repair

(1/1)

jaqsol:
Does anyone know how to repair the Windows 7 component store? So far, the only repair for this that I know of is a repair install or a clean install of Windows 7.

Shane:
Repair install is normally what I would do. I havent been able to find any info on how to rebuild the component store, which is something Windows does during the setup phase.

jaqsol:
Thank you. My original problem was that System File Checker had found some corrupt files but was unable to repair them. I used the Tweaking.com repair tool with no success in fixing this. A repair install of Windows 7 cured the problem. I noticed during the installation, Windows repaired .NET Framework 4. This may have been the cause of the problem. In which case, repairing .NET Framework 4 may have been the cure for the SFC problem. I will check into that the next time I find a similar problem.

Shane:
For .net I use the .net removal tool, it gets rid of it all, and then I install .net fresh. Works great when fixing .net :-)
