Register Question [SOLVED]

Boggin:
There are two ways you can see a condensed version of the CBS log.

Run a cmd prompt as an admin then copy & paste this cmd to the prompt and press enter.

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

This will put an icon onto the desktop which when double clicked will open into Notepad with what it could and couldn't repair.

The other is to download an run SFCFix.exe straight after another sfc /scannow which will produce its own report.

To view the full CBS log, right click on it and select Send to/Documents where you will be able to open it in there.

You can .zip either and attach them to your post.

ChuckR:
GREAT RESPONSE.  I looked through the .txt and everything it could not repair were the samples Windows installs and I removed for video, music, etc.
Thanks again.

Will that work if I can't get to the CBS.LOG?

Boggin:
All of what I've posted will get you access to the CBS log.

SFCFix.exe can repair some items that sfc /scannow is unable to but not all.

Not sure about what you have removed and how.

ChuckR:
I don't remember how I cleaned them up, but they weren't used so I cleaned them out for the space.  I know it wasn't much, but every little bit helps on a SSD.
I don't have SCFix.exe.  Where can I get it?  What does it do in relation to SCF?

Boggin:
Just click on the link for it in my Reply #5 and select Run on the download.

It needs to be run immediately after a sfc /scannow as the CBS log can be volatile.

I don't know how it does it but there's a brief explanation in the majorgeeks.com link.

EDIT - I'm shooting off for a few hours now but will be back later,
