CBS.Logs access denied ??

05-10-2008

From an elevated command prompt, run:
findstr /c:"[SR]" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log >sfcdetails.txt

This will create a file... sfcdetails.txt, that narrows the field to errors
only.

Sorry, that file will contain everything that SFC generated, not just
errors.
If you replace [SR] with Repairing, it should narrow the list to just files
that SFC thought it should fix.

NOTE: SFC is a bit buggy and will report files were repaired even when none
were repaired.

Hello Mark,
1. I could not get any respnse if I replaced [SR] with Repairing. Perhaps if you show me how to type the command correctly?
2.I have the sfcdetails.txt in which I have 4 corrupted files it couldn't repaired. I have included a screenshot for 2 of them. The screen was not wide enough, so you can only see part of each.
3. The main question now is : how to repair/replace those corrupted files.
I did read the link you gave me. Seen it before. Thank you.

The "better" search command:
findstr /C:"[SR] Cannot repair member file" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log

	Quote:
	>sfcdetails.txt

First of all, not every reported error is actually an error. SFC has bugs.
Well, not really bugs, but it doesn't run as expected under different
situations.

If the System File Checker tool cannot repair a file, follow these steps:
1. At an elevated command prompt, type the following command, and then press
ENTER:
takeown /f Path_And_File_Name
For example, type takeown /f E:\windows\system32\jscript.dll.
2. Type the following command, and then press ENTER to grant administrators
full access to the file:
icacls Path_And_File_Name /GRANT ADMINISTRATORS:F
For example, type icacls E:\windows\system32\jscript.dll /grant
administrators:F.
3. Type the following command to replace the file with a known good copy of
the file:
Copy Path_And_File_Name_Of_Source_File
Path_And_File_Name_Of_Destination
For example, type copy E:\temp\jscript.dll
E:\windows\system32\jscript.dll.

Before you replace files, try running SFC in Safe Mode, or run the Repair
option from the Install DVD.
