Re Pre Repairs Scan in version 3
elw:
Hi Shane,
Have done everything as per your instructions and have attached an updated log which shows:
- there are now only 4 missing package files
- there are now 57 corrupt files with bad digital signatures
- there are still 3 incorrect reparse points
- there are now no environmental issues
I have done a SFC Scannow which indicated problem files and then did a Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup which was successful followed by a Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealthwhich failed to repair corrupt files.
So there has been some success but not 100%.
One piece of good news is that the failed Windows update (KB2976978) that I was not able to update for months has now updated successfully.
Also my computer seems to work OK without any real problems so I don't understand what thes missing or corrupt files mean. Are they significant?
Where to from here?

I think you can ignore the Bad Digital Signature ones, the cat file that goes with them has the signature, but if windows doesnt know to look at that file it will give that error, and since we just put those back on the system we can not worry about those.
On the 4 missing files, I had grabbed the wrong ones, so iw ill need to grab the correct 4 for you.

Any Windows update will check the packages files, and if it encounters an error it just bombs out, so what ever update had trouble finding the file it wanted then that update itself wont install. Which is why you could never get that update to install. but once we put back the files it was missing the update installed like it should. So you can see how that is important for updates, but it wont hurt the system itself, these files are manily when doing updates and changes, not to the current running services and such.
So you can see why I made this tool lol

You can ignore those, I am working on v3.1.0 of the Windows repair for mondays release and I updated the scan to not worry about Default.migrated. I also built a new repair to help with the scans as well, just needs tested, so I got a beta together and gave it to a few testers and see what they think.
OK I grabbed the 4 files that are still missing and attached them, you know what to do with them :wink:

Shane,
Thanks for the four missing files. Everything now OK except all those corrupt .mum files but you indicate that these are now really a problem (see attacghment for latest Pre Repairs Scan).
Looking forward to the 3.1 update.
Once again thanks for all of your help I don't know how you manage the time to do all that you do for everyone.
Regards,
Erik

I wonder if the api I call to check the signature of the files isnt seeing the .cat file for some reason. I will look into that and see if another file is needed.
Other than that you should be all good :-)

Hi Shane,
Just downloaded Windows Repair v. 3.1 (got the download from another similar forum link) and used the new Repair Reparse Points feature which worked fine.
Will now wait to see what developments you come up with re the corrupt Bad Digital SIgnature .mum files - "I wonder if the api I call to check the signature of the files isn't seeing the .cat file for some reason. I will look into that and see if another file is needed".

Erik
