Fixing component store corruption in Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012

One of the most used tools when fixing corruption for Windows Vista, 7, 2008 and 2008 R2 was the System Update and Readiness Tool (KB947821), commonly called CheckSUR.  The CheckSUR tool was an excellent way for most people to see what corruption had happened on their store, and potentially fix that corruption if the tool contained the payload to do so.  I’ve written in the past how to use this mechanism to also fix corruption when the CheckSUR utility doesn’t include the payload for your files to “fool” CheckSUR into resolving the problem without needing to do all sorts of whacky permission changes (https://blogs.technet.com/b/joscon/archive/2010/05/26/using-checksur-and-update-packages-to-fix-corruption.aspx). 

The way this works in Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 is different, in a fantastic way.  It’s called Inbox Corruption Repair and it brings the functionality of CheckSUR into Windows rather than requiring a separate download to get the utility like you do now.  This is exposed in two ways, the first is really unseen by the end user and happens when we detect a corrupted state when attempting to install fixes via Windows Update.  When this happens, we'll fix the corruption silently and then re-install the prior packages.  The manual way to use this tool is via DISM.  The way this is exposed is via the DISM /Cleanup-Image functionality.  Here’s what the available switches do:

/CheckHealth: This checks to see if a component corruption marker is already present in the registry.  We’ll inform the user if there is corruption but nothing is fixed or logged anywhere.  This is merely a quick way to see if corruption currently exists.  Think of it as a read-only CHKDSK. This operation should be almost instantaneous.

/ScanHealth: This checks for component store corruption and records that corruption to the C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log but no corruption is fixed using this switch.  This is useful for logging what, if any, corruption exists.  This operation takes ~5-10mins.

/RestoreHealth: This checks for component store corruption, records the corruption to C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log and FIXES the corruption using Windows Update.  This operation takes ~10-15mins or more depending on the level of corruption.

As an example, if you wanted to run this utility against your local component store to check for corruption and you wanted it to repair everything as it found it you would run the following command: DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

So a couple of things of note here:

  1. CheckSUR.log is not created using Inbox Corruption Repair, this logging has now been rolled into CBS.log
  2. I would typically recommend you run /RestoreHealth if you suspect corruption as it will record and fix issues and takes about the same time as /ScanHealth. 
  3. This functionality is also present in Windows PowerShell and can be scripted across an environment
  4. Windows Update or a network available WIM are valid recovery sources but WSUS installations are not.  This is important because if you have WSUS enabled in your environment, there is a chance that your repair operations may be captured by the WSUS Servers and not be properly serviced.  You can control this behavior using Group Policy or the /LimitAccess switch
  5. If you decide to block Windows Update and use a local source WIM, the WIM will only be able to recover payloads present in that WIM.  This means that you’ll need to update your WIM files accordingly to match the patch level of your environment or you wont successfully recover.
  6. CheckSUR will continue to be available for down-level operating systems prior to Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 and will continue to get updated

These changes are really fantastic in my opinion because you no longer need to attempt to move files from other servers, manipulate permissions or “hack” other utilities to get corruption resolved.  Windows Update is updated frequently so that it contains all of the payloads necessary to repair corruption.  And above all else, Inbox Corruption Repair can repair both payload files and manifests (CheckSUR only did manifests) which is a HUGE win for you and I as customers. 

As always, ask questions here.

    Ok. Managed to fix the display driver and logged in to Windows (not in safe mode). Hoorah! The DISM managed to fix the store. Couple of suggestions:

  1. Tools like this must be able to run from safe-mode.
  2. It's very uncool when a corrupted manifest file prevents Windows from booting, because it refuses to load "unsigned" drivers (the driver is signed and the catalog is ok, but the manifest linking the two is broken). The previous time, Windows didn't even allow me to use keyboard because the usbhub.sys driver became "unsigned" because of the manifest corruption. This is stupid...

    @fduch; Thanks for the comments.  Were you running in safe mode or safe mode with networking?  The commands should have been able to repair you with safe mode with networking.  Standard safe mode doesnt initialize the NIC. As for the corrupt manifest stopping Winndows from booting, that will happen if the driver is a boot critical driver.  We dont load unsigned drivers for security reasons, thus its ends up being a dual pronged problem (fix the corruption, fix the boot file, fix the issue).  Again, I think if you had a live NIC, this might have been resolved for you as well.  Glad this worked out for you in the end.

    Mike The only thing I see here is CSI corruption, that's not something IBCR is meant to recover as far as I know, which is why its failing.  Unfortunately, a lot of CSI based issues aren't repairable without a repair install.  Does your event log show anything like disk corruption or other errors recently?

    @Ian; First, thanks for reading my blog/UTGs....nice to know people are getting something out of the material. As for your question, no, there isn't backwards compat for these DISM commands.  We rearchitected the way this works in Windows 8 which is the reason why this wont work.  You can fool CBS into using CheckSUR and source files by putting them in the packages directory however.  I have an older post that speaks to that.

    Thanks.  In looking over the logs, that is the only thing that I see that stands out.  You might want to search the system for localized versions of files that might be staged on the system and then delete them from the system and reattempt the update.

    Ok, I'll try to answer a couple of these at once :) 0x800f0906 is a source directory issue most of the time.  I'd need to see your logs to be sure, but make sure you're not copying and pasting in the command because it can leave trailing spaces/long dashes where there shouldn't be. 0x8007371 is SxS corruption.  Unfortunately you had a log wrap so the one posted doesn't show me anything.  Can you cab up your CBS folder and repost it for me?

    The command is failing because of an incorrect parameter. Are you copying and pasting the command in or typing it in?  I see a trailing space in the DISM log for the command but sometimes the logs show that and its not really there.  Can you try typing in the /restorehealth command manually and let me know the results?

    What about performance, disk footprint and features lost? There have been improvements made in Windows 7 and 8 to improve CBS servicing performance, disk footprint and address limitations but it remains an order of magnitude slower and more disk bloating than update.exe. IT admins will never ever get the speed of update.exe. Installing hundreds of updates via a chained script takes few minutes on XP vs several hours on NT6. Older NT6 systems (e.g. Vista, Windows Server 2008) aren't even serviced in a timely manner any more with updated service pack integrated media produced. CBS servicing performance is a nightmare for IT admins.

    @Drew;

  1.  Markers are generated based on internal CBS scenarios ,basically think of events setting a dirty bit that exists where we know to look
  2.  You could run the command after a master image is created, yes
  3.  WIM can be specified in group policy or in the command using /Source:WIM:<WIM>
  4.  Conceivable I guess, hard to do though :) --Joseph

    DISM logs aren't helpful for this, they only show problems with DISM.  The CBS.log, referred to above is where you'd need to look for the problem.  The exit code you have basically says it cannot get to a source.  Sources can be local or Windows Update

    @Andre.Ziegler - "I doubt that we ever get a Sp2 for Win7. This will be the way for MSFT to force users to upgrade to Win8." If you'd said 'SP3 for Vista', you would have been more credible. Anyway, we all know there has been a lot of for and against argument re Windows 8. However, the other side of "MSFT should backport technology X" arguments is that everyone who is happy to run Win8 (or later), or who runs it regardless of personal opinion, is "forced" to pay extra so that MSFT can fund the updating of older OS releases. How about we do it like this; Make all future service packs, minor version releases instead, charge customers who want the upgrades, and then use the revenue to cross-subsidize the current OS release. That sounds fair to me!

    I have had several issues with Windows update that SFC and DISM doesn't seem to correct.  I am running Windows Server 2012 Essentials.  There are four pending updates that won't install either individually or together. I have tried "sfc /scannow" as administrator and in safe mode with networking followed by DISM.  SFC fails at about 23% saying it cannot complete the requested action. The /scanhealth and /restorehealth switches for DISM throws code 87 errors after the progress reaches 80%.  However /checkhealth switch says there are repairable errors, but I can't seem to get it to repair them. The pending updates have the following errors Error 80070057 on KB2779368 Error 80073712 on KB2756872 Error 80246002 on KB2779768 Error 8007000D on KB2824160 I already tried reinstalling Windows by deleting the partition then starting over.  Unfortunately the errors on Windows Update return after the first or second batch of updates. Here are the logs for DISM and CBS, hopefully it helps someone figure out what is going on in there. CBS - dl.dropboxusercontent.com/.../CBS.zip DISM - dl.dropboxusercontent.com/.../dism.zip

    @Drewfus Vista is out of Mainstream Support, so there won't be a Sp3. But Win7 runs out of Mainstream support in Jan 2015 and an Sp extends the Mainstream support by 1 year. SO MS must release the Sp2 before Jav 2014 and an Sp requires some testings. So if we don't see any activity in 2013 this means Win7 never gets a Sp2. Look at the trend of released ServicePacks and you see that every new WIndows gets less Service Packs. @xpclient You already noticed that my UpdateInstaller is fast ;) So it is no generic issue, you only have to install the Updates correctly. If you install them with WUSA, include "net stop wuauserv" to stop WU service. This speeds up the installation. I've already reported it, but I doubt that the ignorant Developers even looked at it.

    In the future, its best to put your logs on a SkyDrive or DropBox that are accessible because these comments lose context.  Based on the few examples of this type of corruption that I've seen, this is irrecoverable.  If you can post your CBS and DISM logs to an easily accessible location, I'll take a look.

    As for bloat, software as an industry is just larger now because resources aren't at the premium they were in the WinXP days. If you look over the majority of products out there, Microsoft's or otherwise they're larger than they used to be.   I don't disagree with the disk footprint arguments and we as a company have heard that feedback and started making changes to help admins address some of those concerns in Win8/2012 as you noted. Lastly, chained updates were one of the top causes for corruption in WinXP, we don't have those same types of issues in Vista++.  Is the new system perfect, again, no its not, but I still like its resiliency better than XPs.

    Well I'd have to see logs and everything to determine if anything can be done.  You said above that you've tried a clean install and that didn't work.  That could mean the ISO is bad, could mean bad RAM, could really be anything.

    Thanks.  Unfortunately, this isn't good news.  The CanonicalData key is missing. 2013-08-05 11:08:32, Error                 CSI    00000004@2013/8/5:09:08:32.471 (F) basewcpcomponentstorestorelayout.cpp(3617): Error STATUS_SXS_COMPONENT_STORE_CORRUPT originated in function ComponentStore::CRawStoreLayout::OpenCanonicalDataKey expression: (null) [gle=0x80004005] Unfortunately, its a small, but unrecreatable subset of data.  If this is missing, servicing is broken on the machine and the system will need to be restored from backup or PBR.

    Thank you.   Any hints as to where to search in the registry... the log appears to be with respect to Microsoft-Windows-WindowsUpdateClient-UI.   I can see a key with path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionComponent Based ServicingComponentDetectamd64_microsoft-windows-windowsupdateclient-ui_31bf3856ad364e35_0.0.0.0_none_ac8811c44a25694e There are a couple of entries there like this: REG_SZ Package_122_for_KB2756872~31bf3856ad364e35~amd646.2.1.0.2756872-524_neutral_GDR 7.8.9200.20521@2 REG_SZ Package_122_for_KB2756872~31bf3856ad364e35~amd646.2.1.0.2756872-523_neutral_LDR 7.8.9200.16420@2 Are those what you are suggesting to delete?

    I've said this before but I will say it again.  XP's servicing model generated more casework for me personally then Vista and Win7 combined.  There is no perfect software design for doing these things, trade-offs have to be made for either system and I prefer the system we have now to the one we had before.  In XP servicing corruption was almost always a rebuild for a system which was very painful for customers and environments, the fact that we have ways to fix CBS corruption is in and of itself a step in the right direction.

    If thats occurring on a clean install, it shoulds like your media might be corrupted.  0x80073712 is an error that means ERROR_SXS_COMPONENT_STORE_CORRUPT so something is definitely wrong.

    What do you mean by "corruption" - missing or altered files?  Does AutoChk and ChkDsk feed back info on what it "fixes" destructively (e.g. truncations, cross-links, unreadable clusters)?

    @joscon fair enough, thanks! I do recall that post of yours and have been using that trick. For what it's worth, where I usually get stuck is finding copies of the missing files. Most I can grab from KBs via some bing searching on the file names, but there are those where that doesn't work (usually for updates that go through numerous revisions). Keep up the awesome work! :D

    Thanks for the update, its pretty much what I think too. However its my dad's comp and it has been this way for a long time, he said.  So figures... That said, will a "reinstall" over it would fix it? Or a clean install? Or the feature that "reset" windows in the settings ? No big deal either way, but I'll take the easiest, of course. Thanks a bunch.

    Also, no, there is no disk corruption, everything is clean.  Its an upgrade from Win7 to Win8 and I expect it to have gone wrong somewhere...  Its a new comp, less than a year out of the check disk everything was fine.

    Unrecoverable? Not too good sounding then. I figured as much. Think I'm going back to Windows 7 at least until 8.1 is released. I'll see about Dropbox. I think Microsoft should REALLY analyze these logs since the problem occurred immediately after Windows 8 was installed. I literally went to download updates and install AV so that I could start building an image to snapshot my OS to a point in time and these errors occurred. I don't know what the catalyst was or is at this point.

    Looks like WINSXS is messed up. Microsoft needs to build something to reset the permissions back to default for WINSXS maybe? Sounds like I'm not the only one with this problem.

    @warder: Joseph may already be too busy with his new job to answer here.  In case that's so, I'd just like to remind you that Microsoft typically provide free-of-charge support for problems installing updates.  Try your local support number.

    Hi, I keep getting Error 1935 (HRESULT: 0x80073712) when trying to install Office 2010 on Windows 8 (64-bit). I've tried running the command (as an administrator): DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth But it just stays about half an hour on 20% or 40%, and then it just closes itself. The black window just closes. No error, message or anything. When I try to install Office I keep getting the same error. I don't know if I'm writing the command wrong or if I should do something else to correct the error. Please help

    It's really long, do you need anything in particular? The ones that say "Warning"? Or also the ones that say "Info"?

    joscon, Windows 8 Pro refuses to update.  Can you please look at my CBS and dism logs?  sfc /scannow does not complete, and the dism string you recommended yields error 14098.  I ran these as administrator. I placed the logs on my skydrive.  Please let me know if you need anything else. Thanks LCT

    Hi Joscon, Thanks for the post, it was really clarifying. I was glad when I found out about DISM, it seemed a really helpful tool. But exactly like @Fduch, I'm having the same 0x800f0906 error (it was not possible for DISM to download the source files) that shows up every time I try to run the tool. I'm running on Safe Mode with Networking, I am connected to the internet and I am running cmd as administrator. I can't run DISM with a normal boot because the computer crashes after minutes of usage. Windows 8 64bit, tried to use DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth . I understand @Fduch solved the problem, but i couldn't understand how. Could you explain it a bit better for me?
