Missing Windows Servicing Packages files & update problems
Tone111:
Yeah, sorry Boggin - forgot to update my own thread with a fix I've posted in a different one! :rolleyes: ha.
Chkdsk is still showing clear, for now, although it does sometimes make corrections to the bitmap volume, but no more bad sectors lately. The SFC is now clear again thanks to the SFCFix, and the updates all (finally!) managed to install ok after several attempts, and those last 3 didn't require a reboot (maybe as they were only IE & Defender updates, rather than Windows or Security updates). A check after those showed no more Important updates to install, just the 4 optional ones I haven't added, and a green MS tick message!! Yay, Finally!! :artist:
My only question now relates to all the renamed pending.xml files - do I need to keep them? And the reboot.xml in the winsxs folder as well? And I'm a bit wary that every time the monthly updates come around that I'll be in the same boat having to rename the pending.xml and do a double (or more!) reboot and recheck every time - any idea what's causing it to do this or how I can stop it?
Other than that, and still having the drivers to copy back on again (which doesn't seem to be causing any problems!), I'm tempted to mark this thread as [Solved] now - do I just amend the title in the reply to do this? Cheers
Boggin:
I'd wait for Shane's advice on those renamed files, although I would expect you'd only need the latest pending.xml.
I can't understand how chkdsk /r reported bad sectors but now it shows 0 KB in bad sectors as once they are there they don't go away.
Tone111:
No I meant it hadn't found any more bad sectors! There is a small area (several kB, forget the exact number) attributed to bad sectors, but none extra added to it since I last mentioned it had found some. :tongue:
Okay, I'll wait for Shane's advice on the pending and reboot xml files, and many thanks for all your help (and disks!) mate, appreciated :artist:
Boggin:
You're welcome but there is something you can help me with.
I've never had to attach sfc details to a post, so how do you do that ?
Tone111:
Not sure what you mean by "attach SFC details to a post"!? :confused:
Ha, all I do is either copy and paste from Notepad/command prompt/whatever into the body of a post, or if you mean add a file attachment then I just click the "Browse" button next to the "Attach:" thing underneath the reply box (see attachment! :wink:) and that opens up a browsing/exploring window for you to find the required file(s) - is that what you're referring to??
