Hi, I'm trying to follow the instructions given at
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833 .

I successfuly ran sfc /scannow scannow.exe at an elevated cmd promt.

The next command doesn't work:

findstr /C:"[SR] Cannot repair member file" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log
sfcdetails.txt

At this point I receive ... Cannot open C:\Windows\logs\logs\cbs.log

Suggestions? Thanks, DH

Slight error in my original post. What I should have written was:

Re-check your "findstr" command line - you have the path spelled differently
in the example and result.
