Total Frustration!

1TB external HD is not accessible for some unknown reason. Last time it came up, there was a demand to format it.  Makes no difference to update if it is connected or disconnected.

Recent chkdsk found no errors. Taking a long time on the 260G.

Boggin:
A chkdsk /f on my Win 7 640GB HDD doesn't take that much time at all.

Let's have another go with a sfc /scannow

If it still reports it is unable to start the service, enter -

sc config trustedinstaller start=auto

net start trustedintaller

to see if they report as successful and then retry the sfc /scannow cmd.

If it reports it is unable to repair some files. then run SFCFix.exe which will give a much more concise report, but I think the only alternative now will be a clean install.

If you are unable to create bootable Win 10 ISO media with the MCT on your machine then you'll need prevail perhaps upon a friend if no other machine is available.

Boggin:
If you are stuck for creating bootable Win 10 media, I've used the MCT to download a Win 10 x64 ISO with the box unchecked to match my Windows version so that the download would be good for Home or Pro.

If you require the 32 bit then I can download that as well, so if you want, I can burn and send you a couple of disks.

SFCFIX reported "No corruption."
SFC will not start!
14295 iso will not install!!! Always fails, quits and goes home.

three different updates: one burned to hd, one to external, one to usb, one to DVD. None of them can install. It takes  7 hours to download.
