    Here is the validation report. This copy has been running for years with no problems, and I have all the original documentation and labels. Every since the system did an automatic upgrade last week, I have been having nothing but grief and an occasional BSOD!!!

    Sorry for the delay...

    There's nothing wrong there that I can see, so I'm mystified as to why it should fail.

    ...I wonder...

    look at the Properties for the winsxs folder -

    Clear the 'blob' from the 'Read-only (Only applies to files in folder)' box by clicking on it until it's plain white.

    Click on Apply.

    Make sure that the radio button for 'Apply changes to this folder, subfolders and files' is set, and click OK.

    Accept the Administrator prompt. After a couple of seconds, you'll be told there is an error - click on the 'Ignore all' button.

    Wait for it to finish - it could take a couple of minutes.

    OK out, and exit Windows Explorer.

    (The blob will re-appear - don't bother repeating the process)

    Then try the procedure again.

    Rare error codes, those! (Do you have SQL Server installed by any chance?)

    Please run a full CHKDSK and SFC scan....

    Click on Start > All Programs > Accessories

    Right-click on the Command Prompt entry

    Select Run as Administrator and accept the UAC prompt - the Elevated Command Prompt window should pop up.

    At the Command prompt, type

     CHKDSK C: /R

    and hit the Enter key.

    You will be told that the drive is locked, and the CHKDSK will run at the next boot - hit the Y key, and then reboot.

    The CHKDSK will take a few hours depending on the size  of the drive, so be patient!

     After the CHKDSK has run, Windows should boot normally  (possibly after a second auto-reboot) - then run the SFC.

    SFC -System File Checker - Instructions

    Click on Start > All Programs > Accessories

    Right-click on the Command Prompt entry

    Select Run as Administrator and accept the UAC prompt - the Elevated Command Prompt window should pop up.

    At the Command prompt, type

    SFC /SCANNOW

    and hit the Enter key

    Wait for the scan to finish - make a note of any error messages - and then reboot.

    Upload the CBS.log file (compressed, please!) to your OneDrive or DropBox Public folder, and post a link - also post a new MGADiag report.

    Will do. I did a CHKDSK C: /R last week and an SFC /SCANNOW last week, and it didn't turn up anything. It may be a while, I have work to do first.  I'll do it again, it seems to be getting weirder and weirder.

    The system rebooted itself again last night and I have the "not genuine" message again this morning. I've attached the message. At first I thought it was perhaps a virus, I haven't had many problems with them over the last 30 years, but there is always a first time. I noticed that my MineSweeper.exe now fails. I've attached that error too. I've hunted around and that can indicate a virus, but none found. This forum only allows two image uploads.

    The minesweeper error says: "Application initialization error." That's really helpful. 

    Another symptom that is very strange is I have three printers, all network and they entirely disappear from control panel. They're not even grayed out, the icons are totally gone and if I try to add a printer back in, I get the attached error message.

    I went to attach the images and I get a forum error message that says: "The page at social.microsoft.com says: "Body text cannot contain images or links until we are able to verify your account." I can't verify my system is genuine, now I can't even get verified on this forum. I'm having quite a week.

    I don't know if this will help or not, but I ran a system maintenance tool (3rd party) called System Mechanic and it found that mscorsvw.exe has crashed 179 times in the last ten days (since the update.) It has also seen spoolsv.exe and isass.exe crash. With spoolsv.exe missing, that explains the missing printer processes and icons.

    System Mechanic could well be the cause of you problems.

    If you have the option, please jndo anthing it's done, and then uninstall it.

    I still need the files I asked for.

    I've put the zipped file in Onedrive. I've never used onedrive before, so if I didn't do this correctly, do let me know. Sorry it took so long.

    The forum here won't let me put links or images in yet, because it can't verify my account, so I left off the http://:

    Thanks for the help.

    I've uploaded a file - k1paa.zip - to my OneDrive at Noel's OneDrive

    Please download and save it.

    Right-click on the saved file and select Extract all...

    Change the target to C:\ and click on Extract

    Close all windows (it would be a good idea to print these instructions!)

    Now reboot to the Repair Environment - as soon as the machine restarts, start tapping F8 - this should bring up the Advanced Boot Menu, at the top of which should be the option 'Repair my Computer'

    Pick that

    You'll have to log in with your username and password.

    Pick the option to use a Command Prompt

    At the prompt type

    DIR C:\k1paa

    hit the enter key - if you get a 'Not Found' error try

    DIR D:\k1paa

    or

    DIR E:\k1paa

    The drive letter in use when you find the folder will need to be substituted (for<drive>) into the following command...

    XCOPY <drive>:\k1paa  <drive>:\windows\winsxs /y /i /s /v /h

    (e.g. XCOPY P:\wfire P:\windows\winsxs /y /i /s /v /h )

    run the command (it should take almost no time) and when the prompt returns, type

    EXIT

    and hit the Enter key to exit Command Prompt - reboot to Normal Mode Windows.

    Now run SFC /SCANNOW in an Elevated Command Prompt

    then reboot and upload the new CBS.log file to your reply

    Hi Noel:

    When I chose the "repair" option, it asks me to put in a Windows 7 disk, which I don't have, the original install is an OEM.

    Should I try and find someone with a disk?

    Also, once over this hurdle, when it asks for a password, I don't usually have one, will I just leave it blank?

    Thanks

    Dennis

    That message at startup indicates that you don't have a System Reserved partition - which would normally be created when installing Windows (unless you take deliberate steps).

    You should still have the original disk used to install Windows - you can boot from that, and pick the option to repair the current install. If you don't have it, or this fails, download the ISO file for your language and edition of Windows SP1 (Media Refresh) from the listing here - http://www.heidoc.net/joomla/technology-science/Microsoft - and create the disk yourself.

    Yes, just leave the box blank when asked for the password.

    The compute came with Windows installed and no disk. I will do as advised and build a disk.  Thanks for bearing with me. I do have a repair disk that I burned, but it was after all this started, so there is a chance that it is corrupted as well, so I'll go get the ISO file and use it.

    I do have an old Toshiba Satellite laptop with Linux running on it, so I'm not totally without another system and don't have to print things out, as was suggested earlier.

    Good luck with it - depending on how you created the repair disk, it may well work OK. It's certainly worth a try.

    For some odd reason, I posted here last night and the post didn't show up. I did the repair disk thing, using a downloaded X17-58997.ISO file. I couldn't make the XCOPY command work properly, I think the /i option is confusing it, but could be wrong. I've been away from the command line stuff too long. Here is a cut and paste of the directory and then the XCOPY command. The "Genuine" window is still popping up and the printers are still missing, so I don't think much was repaired:

    c:\>dir k1paa\k1paa
     Volume in drive C has no label.
     Volume Serial Number is E81A-800D

     Directory of c:\k1paa\k1paa

    To me, it looks like it is trying to create the winsxs directory, when it already exists? I would think the /i would prevent that.

    Any suggestions?

    You created the folder to copy from a little wrongly - but I see that you corrected the command to compensate.

    I've never had problems before with the /I switch - but I've had very few cases where the user has had to use a repair disk.

    The fact that the command failed completely is a little concerning ...

    While in Windows, please open an Elevated Command Prompt, and run the following commands.

    ICACLS C:\Windows\winsxs
ICACLS C:\Windows\winsxs\amd64_microsoft-windows-a..on-experience-tools_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7601.17514_none_f2f02c72bf119df2 /T

    post the results.

      Here are some instructions to make life easier :)

    1) To open an Elevated Command Prompt Window (the ECP window), click on Start, All Programs, Accessories – then right-click on Command Prompt, and select Run as Administrator. Accept the UAC prompt. 

    2) To run the commands easier, highlight the block of commands, and right-click on the highlight – select Copy. In the CP Window, click on the black/white icon at top left – select Paste. The commands will run but may not complete the last command, so hit the Enter Key once. 

    3) To copy the results... click on the Black/White icon in the top left, and select Edit... 'Select All', and hit the Enter key - then use Ctrl+V or r-click+Paste to paste it into your response.

    Sorry for the delay...

    There's nothing wrong there that I can see, so I'm mystified as to why it should fail.

    ...I wonder...

    look at the Properties for the winsxs folder -

    Clear the 'blob' from the 'Read-only (Only applies to files in folder)' box by clicking on it until it's plain white.

    Click on Apply.

    Make sure that the radio button for 'Apply changes to this folder, subfolders and files' is set, and click OK.

    Accept the Administrator prompt. After a couple of seconds, you'll be told there is an error - click on the 'Ignore all' button.

    Wait for it to finish - it could take a couple of minutes.

    OK out, and exit Windows Explorer.

    (The blob will re-appear - don't bother repeating the process)

    Then try the procedure again.
