Hi,
I've tried to install .net4.8 but failed with error 0x800f0922
Also, recently Firefox wouldn't start with error 0xc0000022
Are these related, how to fix it?
I run Windows 8.1 64 bit; other programs, including browsers, work fine.
Thanks a lot.
-
It could be related but have a look through this article on how to troubleshoot Firefox.
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-wont-start-find-solutions?redirectlocale=en-US&redirectslug=Firefox+will+not+start
My first thought though would be to uninstall it and download afresh.
As for the Windows Update failure, this article has some suggestions for that error code.

Thanks, I've tried some of the suggestions in these articles, gonna try the rest.

There are a couple of cmds that can resolve update problems in Win 10 which may also apply to Win 8.1
These are run from a Command Prompt (Admin) and are -
dism /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
and then enter sfc /scannow to see if any corruption remains.
These each will take a while to run.
-
Yes, I've tried these.
sfc /scannow said it had found some corrupted files but couldn't fix all of them.
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth said that the source wasn't available.
-
Can you run another sfc /scannow and when it reports the same, download and run SFCFix.exe and post its report.

-
Thanks, I will do that.
-
Weirdo, isn't it?
-
Okay - can you now download and run SFCFix.exe and post its report.
-
I'm going offline shortly for 3 - 4hrs but will be back later to see how you are getting on.
-
Didn't you mean the SFCFix.txt that I've posted already?
-
No - that is what the sfc /scannow has reported.
You need to download SFCFix.exe from the link I'd posted in my earlier reply.
This needs to be run straight after a sfc /scannow as a CBS log can be volatile.
This is why I asked you to run another sfc /scannow so that the CBS log it produced would be fresh.
You will need to run another sfc /scannow and then download that program and run it.
That will produce its own report as to what it could or couldn't fix and what I want you to post.
-
Oh, I did so but not immediately after sfc /scannow. I thought that the SFCFix.txt, which did say no corruption, was the result.
All right next time I run the two right after each other. Do I need to download again, can't run the previous copy?
-
If you've already run SFCFix.exe it should have put a log onto your computer - can you dig it out and post it.
If it has already repaired what sfc /scannow couldn't then it will have that in its report, but to confirm, run another sfc /scannow which should report no integrity violations.
If that is the case, then try Windows Update again.
Another run of SFCFix.exe on a fully repaired sfc would produce a no error SFCFix.exe log.
-
I ran SFCFix right after sfc /scannow as you said. It ran very long and then started DISM which ran even longer.
The end note of SFCFix and DISM log are enclosed, I couldn't find any log of SFCFix.
-
I would have to run a sfc /scannow and then SFCFix.exe on my Win 7 machine to see if I could check to see where the SFCFix.exe log was but from your screenshot, it may not have completed a report.
It would take too long to perform this on my Win 10 machines.
In light of the corruption reported on your system, I think the best option now would be to perform a repair install which wouldn't affect your personal stuff or installed programs.
This article will walk you through how to do that for Win 8.1 - https://www.winhelp.us/non-destructive-reinstall-of-windows-8-and-8-1.html
If that doesn't resolve your problem then you may have to consider what I call the nuclear option of a Reset which can retain your personal stuff but would remove all 3rd party installed programs.
-
One last question before I resort to such drastic measures. DISM says that the source can't be downloaded; isn't there any way to do that somehow?
-
This article has a number of suggestions on how to overcome that error (although I haven't read through them), but I think it would be better to opt for the repair install.
https://www.wintips.org/how-to-fix-dism-source-files-could-not-be-downloaded-0x800f0906-windows-10-8/
I have to shoot off for a while now but will be back.
-
Thank you for all, I'll do what you said is left.
-
Let me know how you get on.
-
You noted that SFCFix.exe may not have completed, so I tried again. I let it run for 12 hours, the hyphen was still blinking but nothing else was shown after the DISM report that I posted. Does it mean anything to you?
-
It sounds like it's struggling because of the level of corruption and because the dism /restorehealth failed to run.
I'd go ahead with the repair install.
