MSDTC.LOG - sfc found it corrupt & cannot repair [SOLVED]
takitezsdc:
AND one question for you Bin......why the heck are you using windows vista 32 bit? Windows 7 and 8.1 are MUCH better even 10...........than Vista 32bit......come to think of it...I don't think I have ever seen a 32 bit system ? :rolleyes:

Dear takitezsdc,
I think there is a freeware for your requirements that you mentioned in red ink --- nLite. Just check it out. I have never used it but had read about it and computer repair techies use it with lot of confidence. It is something you can hold on CD and pendrive as an ISO.
And yes, I use Windows Vista Starter 32 bit since 2009. This OS came free with my Desktop PC. My desktop PC is very low cost PC. This OS was sold in India to control use of pirated softwares and for good looks like sidebar (although sidebar is a security risk). I like Win Vista Starter because it does not crash immediately due to virus, etc. It has something called DEP (data Execution Protection).Frankly, in 2009 I did not know what was I buying ... I only wanted a low cost desktop PC to play games and surf the internet. I never use pirated software but prefer freewares. I like new technology but I want full worth for what I pay ... so I have not yet migrated to Win 7, Win 8.1 or 10. Its a pity that by the time we get familiar with OS, Microsoft shifts to newer versions...newer hardware....It is all R&D at customers cost..I guess. MS and computer harwares must sell finished products... then we can use and throw. But there are somethings that become so dear with use that I like to maintain even if its old and obsolete.... like a vintage car. Say what?

Just moral booster pictures of successful achievement -- Win Updates repaired and working and Win Defender also working.
Further when successful after testing -- System restore -- picture -- say on Sunday Dec 4, 2016 -- coming soon.....

Yes Sir.......today is a lucky day.....
Your hint that VSS may not be working....
That is... by default ... VSS is Stop / Manual.....
I put it Automatic and Start.....
System Restore still did not work....
Then I do Research & Destruction.... scientists call it R&D for short.....
I found a good article on VSS. It is attached.
At the bottom of the article there is a link for 32 bit download VSSfix.
I downloaded VSSfix and run it.
Then I try System restore.
Bingo! It worked. System Restore Point created successfully.
Yes and by the way I got response from sysnative.forum.
That problem of MSDTC.log was getting repaired everytime I run sfc tool.
Perhaps it was because I did that copy paste from other member.
Sysnative warned me copy-paste won't work and sent me an exclusive fix.
It now works nicely. Then I try sfc and get result - No corruption.
My PC is tip top once again.
Thanks to Boggin of tweaking.com and BrianDrab of Sysnative.forum.
My first experience with forums and that too 2 at a time was very delightful.
Glad to know that in this world there are people who are far away but available to help a user.
Many a times users like me get frustrated and think a lot about the pace with which science and technology moves and fear being left behind....
Thanks.
I think it is high time we close this thread.....Say What!

Boggin:
That confirmed my suspicions that a fix for someone else may not work for others - but glad you eventually got a response from Sysnative.
I'm not sure if Satrow may have contacted someone on there on your behalf, although he hasn't said anything about that.
I'll mark the thread Solved for you but you can do it by going back to your opening post, click on Modify and add [SOLVED] to the thread title.
