Problems with reparse point

(1/3) > >>

jc1glockguy:
I am using Windows 7 Pro 64bit and have had updating problems. SFC reports no integrity violations. I ran option 2 and it reported Package files are good and environment variables was good as well. The report I get is " missing default reparse point C:\users\dub_ato\application data and reports target default reparse point is missing and can cause problems. When I run the fix option and reboot back to safe mode and re-run the same test the same problem returns. I have copied the log file that was generated, if I should submit this let me know. Thanks for your help in advance. Regards.

It probably relates to something that is installed on your computer and isn't a system file which is why it has remained.

I have a couple on my Win 10 laptop but I'm not aware of any adverse effects.

Download FreeFixer and when you locate it, click on the More info which should tell you what it relates to.

Hi Boggin, thanks for the tip. I will give it a shot. I know of others who are having problems with Windows 7 not updating anymore. I purchased the pro version of Tweaking but was disappointed that it could not fix the issue with the update problem and or the reparse point issue. In my humble opinion, Microsoft should be sued by now, especially the way they force feed Windows 10 down everybody's throat. Even M.S.'s own updating fix program  claims it can't fix the update issue because of "Rootcause RC_dataStore" ErrorCode 0x80070057, and collected file name CheckSURLog.cab. If you can elaborate on these messages or I will run the program first that you recommend and get back with you. Thanks very much for your time and consideration. Once I master this updating issue, I can help others as  well. Take care, John

Boggin:
What did the Checksur log report after running the System Update Readiness Tool ?

Sometimes these commands run from an elevated command prompt can help - you can copy & paste to the cmd prompt where they'll auto run except perhaps for the last net one where you'll need to press enter.

net stop wuauserv

net stop cryptSvc

net stop bits

net stop msiserver

ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old

ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 catroot2.old

net start wuauserv

net start cryptSvc

net start bits

net start msiserver

exit

(to close the cmd window after the cmds have executed)

If they don't do it, WSUS Offline Update has proven to be a final solution.

Thanks again, Boggin. I have been pulled away from this project for a short time but did not want your help going ignored. Freefix found some issues but did not help the updating program. I will try your list of other suggestions as time permits and hope to get back in the near future. Thanks again!!
