Hey all, been having a lot of problems with windows updater not activating. I've tried the troubleshooter on microsoft's website and several other solutions but nothing seems to work. I hope I can get some answers to my question cause nothing seems to connect, not even windows smart glass and the update icon for windows 10 doesn't appear on the toolbar.

 

any help is appreciated.

 

did a scan and here's the cbs log

Hi,

 

Let's see what we can find...

 

• Download SFCFix.exe (by Niemiro) and save it to the Desktop
• Run SFCFix (accept the security warning and follow the instructions on the screen)
• Upon completion, a log file SFCFix.txt should be created on your Desktop
• Open the SFCFix.txt log and copy & paste the contents to your post

 

[Lucky Dearly]

okay I ran the scan but it ended with an error message

Hi,

 

Press + X and click Open Command Prompt (Admin)
type:

Reagentc /info

Copy and paste the result of the command to your post please.
 

 

Edit: Is this a home computer or part of a company network with a WSUS server (local update server)?

[Lucky Dearly]

It's a home computer

[SleepyDude]

It's a home computer

 

 And the result of the command?

[Lucky Dearly]

here's the results

 

[SleepyDude]

Hi,

 

Do you have the Windows 8.1 install DVD?

 

If you don't have it please visit the Microsoft webpage here and download the edition that matches what you have.

 

I suggest you choose the option to burn a DVD containing the Windows 8.1 install.

[Lucky Dearly]

I do have the Windows 8.1 installer DVD

[SleepyDude]

Hi,

 

Put the Windows 8 DVD on drive and open the Command Prompt as Administrator, then type:

dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth /source:wim:X:\sources\install.wim:1 /limitaccess

On the command above replace the X on X:\ with the drive letter corresponding to the DVD drive.

[Lucky Dearly]

okay I did as you said and the scan however gave an error

 

here's a screenshot of the error

 

[SleepyDude]

Can you confirm that the file install.wim exists inside e:\sources?

[Lucky Dearly]

yeah it's there in the sources file

[SleepyDude]

please type the following command and post the result

Dism /get-wiminfo /wimfile:e:\sources\install.wim

The Windows you have is Windows 8.1 or Windows 8.1 Pro?
