There were only two lines to run. I'm guessing on your screen it wrapped to a second line. I'll shrink the font down. The second line should be as follows. Please do the second line again.

OK. Download this file and save it to your desktop.

 

In the command-prompt window that you are still in, copy and paste the following line and let me know if it's successful. It's all one line. You will be asked to overwrite the file. Please answer Yes.

 

copy "C:\Users\punjab\Desktop\Maid with the Flaxen Hair.mp3" "c:\Windows\winsxs\amd64_microsoft-windows-musicsamples_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7600.16385_none_06495209cbd8e93b\Maid with the Flaxen Hair.mp3"

After further review of the log I don't see any new entries from running System File Checker. Can you run it again and let me know the exact error message that is displayed in the command-prompt window? After trying again, please send new CBS log as well. Thank you.

Bummer. Same spot. I have a couple other options. Please do the following.

 

Step#1 - FRST Fix
NOTICE: This script was written specifically for this user, for use on that particular machine. Running this on another machine may cause damage to your operating system
1. Download attached file and save it to the Desktop. Attached File  fixlist.txt   108bytes   274 downloads
Note. It's important that both files, FRST64 and fixlist.txt are in the same location or the fix will not work (in this case...the desktop).
2. Run FRST64 by Right-Clicking on the file and choosing Run as administrator.
3. Press the Fix button just once and wait. If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run.
4. When finished FRST64 will generate a log on the Desktop (Fixlog.txt). Please post the contents of it in your reply.

 

Step#2 - System File Checker
 
1. Click your Start Orb in the lower left of your computer and type cmd in the search box.
2. Once the cmd program is found, right-click on it with your mouse and select Run as administrator as shown below.
ElevateCommandPrompt.JPG

3. Answer Yes when asked to allow.
4. You should now have a black window open that you can type in to.
5. Type sfc /scannow and hit enter to start the scan. Please notice the space between sfc and /scannow.
6. Once the scan finishes please zip and attach the C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log

Note: If the file is too large to attach here please upload to a service such as SendSpace or OneDrive or Dropbox and then provide the link.

Good. Now let's re-run SURT and see if it finds the corruption.

 

System Update Readiness Tool (SUR)
1. Download and run the following file.
2. When it asks you if you wish to install, please answer yes. Note: It could take 15 minutes or more to run. Please don't cancel.
3. You will get an Installation Complete screen when it's done running.
4. Please post the contents of the log from the following location. C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.log

Good. As suspected the tool recognized the deleted directory and recreated. Now let's put the files back in there. Please do the following.
 
Step#1 - SFCFix Script
Warning: this fix is specific to the user in this thread. No one else should follow these instructions as it may cause more harm than good. If you are after assistance, please start a thread of your own.

  • Download SFCFix.exe (by niemiro) and save this to your Desktop. If you still have this on your desktop from downloading previously, you don't need to re-download.
  • Download the file , SFCFix.zip, and save this to your Desktop. Ensure that this file is named SFCFix.zip - do not rename it.
  • Save any open documents and close all open windows.
  • On your Desktop, you should see two files: SFCFix.exe and SFCFix.zip.
  • Drag the file SFCFix.zip onto the file SFCFix.exe and release it.
  • SFCFix will now process the script.
  • Upon completion, a file should be created on your Desktop: SFCFix.txt.
  • Copy (Ctrl+C) and Paste (Ctrl+V) the contents of this file into your next post for me to analyse please
