Tweaking.com Support & Help / Re: System File Check is not successful

I just realized that I did not correctly interpret the results from the DISM command (my last post). It stated that the component store is repairable. I had incorrectly read it as having repaired. I'm back to the starting gate. I'm going to run TC-WR repair as if I just started. Possibly I made more mistakes.

I just ran
dism /online /cleanup-image /checkhealth
and it reported success, see the image.
Does this mean I'm good to go? What should be my next step?

I forgot to mention I had tried SFCFix See http://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/sfcfix.html, it was not able to resolve the issue.
Boggin, I'll give your suggestions a try later today. Tks

Tweaking.com Support & Help / System File Check is not successful
« on: March 15, 2016, 01:48:17 am »
I'm now working on my wife's laptop and it seems to have a lot of issues. Originally the system had Win7, this was upgraded to Win8, then Win8.1 and Win10 (all x64). The latest update was several months ago. Recently I noticed that Acronis True Image was not creating backups and the system was running rather slow. Possibly my best choice is to perform a clean install of Win10.
I installed TC-Windows Repair and stated performing the steps.

The first real issue I encountered was with CHKDSK. The HD has several partitions (see the image). When I first got the system I partitioned the drive to separate the data from the OS and assigned the drive letter "A". Thus when I got to the step to run CHKDSK I selected all three partitions (A, C and D) (the D partition is the original Lenovo recovery partition, this I should just remove, I will never use it. It was about 2200 hours when I rebooted the system to let CHKDSK run. The next day at 1000 hours CHKDSK was still processing the C drive but stated it was 100% complete, so I let it run. At 1400 hours it was still running and my wife was bugging me to use the PC so I forced a power off, removed the battery, pressed the Power on button, installed the battery and booted up the system. Later that night about 2200 hours I setup to run CHKDSK on the C partition and let it run (BTW CHKDSK /R was used for all runs). This time the next day it had successfully run.

I then worked my way up to the SFC and when it ran it stated that files were corrupt but could not be fixed.
I then ran DISM and it failed "The restore operation failed. Either the repair source was not found or the component store cannot be repaired."

At this point I was a bit lost and just left it. Tonight I tried again and again it failed. I read the page at https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh825020.aspx On my desktop I shared out C:\Windows and on the laptop I access this as the Z drive then ran DISM with the following (CMD window as admin).
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:z: /LimitAccess

Again it failed, the DISM log is attached. Tis late and I'm going to bed...

I managed to get past the 12% issue but I'm not sure what the heck was the solution. I now have my laptop successfully running or so it seems. I can now successfully create nightly scheduled System Restore files, VSS is working and Acronis True Image is creating nightly incremental backup and weekly full backups. Now to get my wife's laptop working correctly.

I ran the memory test, no issues were found. In a CMD window I then ran chkdsk /r on the drive it successfully ran. At this time I have not retried Tweaking.com.

Tweaking.com Support & Help / Chkdsk freezes at 12%
« on: February 23, 2016, 08:35:28 pm »
    I'm in the process of a Win10 clean install on a rather complex desktop. I currently have 12 HDs one of which is a SSD (this is my boot drive). I was testing a beta version of Restore Point Creator which encountered a bug and in the pop-up the author suggested Windows Repair and I've installed it (v3.8.3) and started working my way through the steps. Step 3 checks to see if Check Disk is needed and it did say it was needed. Thus I decided to let it perform a CHKDSK on all 12 drives and elected to run in safe mode.
    • The first issue I encountered was with check disk on one of my drives, it froze at 12&. I let it run over night but in the AM it was still stuck at 12%. I attempted several reboots but the system immediately seem to start with the drive where it was stuck and would not go any further. I powered off and unplugged the drive, powered the system and a short time later another drive seemed to be stuck. I powered off and unplugged all drives except for the boot drive (the SSD).
    • Now the system would boot but only in Safe Mode. I made numerous retries but all resulted in booting into Safe Mode. During this time I encountered several BSOD.
    • I have also installed Restore Point Creator and it is scheduled to create a daily restore point at 0100 hours and at this time I performed a system restore using the RP that was created this AM. The restore was successful but still I could only boot to Safe Mode
    • I opened a CMD window as admin and issued "bcdedit /deletevalue {default} safeboot" and was then able to reboot successfully.
  • I then opened Hard Disk Sentinel (it is always running in the background) and attempted to run the safe disk read/write where no data is destroyed but all of the drives I attempted to use could not be locked by HDS. I will be contacting the author to report this strange behavior.
I know of one other issue I currently have on the system but for now I don't want to go down this rabbit hole unless it will help with this situation. It has to do with the drives I've shared out. I have three laptops all running Win10 and one cannot access any of the drives, the other two can access some of the drives. Prior to installing Win10 on the desktop Win8.1 was installed and all laptops could access the drives. The drives have been shared with full permissions and I'm using simple networking.

Update 02/24
Last night I ran the READ test via Hard Disk Sentinel (Test - Reads the disk surface to verify if all sectors are accessible and readable. The test is safe, it does not affect stored data. Disk problems may remain hidden and revealed disk issues are NOT fixed (like with ScanDisk).) See the image for my successful results.

I also ran the ScanDisk utility (Driver properties > Tools > Check > Scan drive --- It reported that something was fixed, I ran it a 2nd time and in the Event Viewer in the General section I see the following. Both reports for the two runs are the same. I just ran the ScanDisk a 3rd time and the report is the same.

Chkdsk was executed in scan mode on a volume snapshot.
