Need Help Replacing Corrupted Files Windows 7

<< < (2/5) > >>

Boggin:
When you view the CBS log after running sfc /scannow it can be difficult to see what it has or hasn't been able to fix, but if you enter this cmd straight after it will put an icon onto the Desktop which will open the CBS log in Notepad.

findstr /c:"[SR]" %windir%\Logs\CBS\CBS.log >"%userprofile%\Desktop\sfcdetails.txt

I say straight after because I read somewhere that the CBS log can be volatile - but don't know why if that is true.

Anyway, this is a cut down version which just shows what it has checked/repaired and will quite clearly tell you what it couldn't when that is the case.

sparkyg:
I ran the sfc again (attached)and then made the text file. It still says that there are files corrupted that it can't fix but the text file doesn't seem to mention corrupt files. Even thought the activation of the windows 7 says it was successful I still get a popup after running a while saying that the windows is not genuine.

Since the computer came loaded with Windows 7 from HP I don't have full install disks. I have the recovery disk but that wipes everything out.

Boggin:
You could see what a chkdsk /r reports but I agree, that CBS log comes up clean.

Run these cmds from an elevated cmd prompt and then see what SFCFix.exe reports.

These cmds rebuild the Licensing Store in Win 7 -

net stop sppsvc
(wait until the service has stopped before entering the following lines)

CD %windir%\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\SoftwareProtectionPlatform

REN tokens.dat tokens.bar

net start sppsvc

slui.exe

After a couple of seconds the Windows Activation dialog will appear.

You may be asked to re-activate and/or re-enter your product key, or Activation may occur automatically.

If you are asked for your Key, use the one on the COA sticker on the machine's case.

Reboot.

To view the full report of chkdsk /r go Start - type eventvwr and press enter.

When it has read the data, expand Windows Logs then click on Application/Action/Find then type chkdsk or wininit into the Find box and press enter.

Cancel the Find box then read the report in the scrollable window.

Windows has finished checking your disk.
Please wait while your computer restarts.

Boggin:
The volume seems to be sound but it has reported 8 KB in bad sectors which means that your HDD is on the way out.

I thought this was a new HDD that you are using ?

Hit the green Download button for HDSentinal and that will give you the 30 day trial which will give you a written report on the status of your HDD.

You can stop the clock on the trial period by uninstalling it and then install it again as required from the Downloads folder.

What did SFCFix.exe report after running those commands for the not genuine message ?

If there are problems with the Services, then open this file - Extract then Merge which should reinstate your services.
