Windows 10: Disaster after Windows Update (bootres.dll corrupted, error codes 0x0)

Hi Everyone,


Current situation is disaster. My OS is Windows 10 64bit.


I was forced to do Windows Update. Was delaying this task many times but today computer literally ''gave'' me no choice but to auto restart in order to be able to update itself. I believe update was fully done but major problem after update has occurred, AGAIN*, and need to ask for some assistance please.


*all the time after updates, I am having full of problems. Most of times updates are not even being done. This time it was. I am usually having BSOD (blue screen) errors but now the problem after most recent update (today) doesn't seem to be BSOD related one. If i manage to solve the problem, using your help, the first thing i will do is to block for a lifetime Windows updates.


The reason i think my problem is NOT related to BSOD is because the following folder is empty:


C:\WINDOWS\Minidump


And I haven't been seeing any BSOD errors yet (fortunately).


Let me describe my problem: Every time I try to restart pc or start it (from being off), i come to unwanted black screen which occurs before Windows' logo does. The black screen contains text similar to the following quoted one:


"Choose operating system you want to run or click key TAB to choose the tool

Setup

Windows 10

Windows 10"


this is not my typing mistake. The same line is repeated twice. If i choose Setup, the screen similar (not the same!) to the following one occurs:


https://filestore.community.support.microsoft.com/api/images/c7235a32-047f-4d3d-9de3-f64b8d543c89


If I choose first Windows 10 (so second line), it happens nothing but same ''Choose operating system...'' etc black screen shows itself again after less than 0.1 seconds just like you would refresh the webpage on internet browser.


If I choose second Windows 10 (so third line), i can normally go to Desktop to continue with my work (no further errors visible on screen).


So far I tried the following but nothing helped:


sfc /scannow

chkdsk c: /f /r (i did this while being signed in as Admin, it took me over 5 hours for nothing, problem remains)

sfcfix.exe (third party tool but didn't work)

automatic repair

cleaning ALL cookies and even flash cookies

cleaning registry


While i was trying to solve the error on my own, somewhere, not sure where (may be during sfc /scannow), i saw information about file SrtTrail.txt located on the following path: C:\WINDOWS\System32\LogFiles\Srt


from this txt file I would like to emphasize the following line (in case if i need to post entire content, kindly let me know):


Boot critical file c:\efi\microsoft\boot\resources\custom\bootres.dll is corrupt.


Your assistance what to do would be highly appreciated.

:)

 

D3dx9_30.dll Not Found error in Ashes Cricket 2009

Important Note: Do not, under any circumstances, download the d3dx9_30.dll DLL file individually from any "DLL download site." There are a number of different reasons that downloading DLLs from these sites are never a good idea.

 

Windows Updates failed to instal

I'm not sure how differant XP media center Edition is but you could clear the history \ cache if these folders are there.

Step 1 Register DLL files.

=================

By trying this step, we can check if the update engines are working properly.



1. Close all instances of Internet Explorer.

2. Click Start and Run, type "Regsvr32 atl.dll" (without quotes) in the Open box and click OK.



Note: There is a space between regsvr32 and atl.dll



3. Similarly, one by one, register the files listed below:



Regsvr32 msxml3.dll

Regsvr32 wuapi.dll

Regsvr32 wuaueng.dll

Regsvr32 wuaueng1.dll

Regsvr32 wups2.dll

Regsvr32 wucltui.dll

Regsvr32 wups.dll

Regsvr32 wuweb.dll

Regsvr32 qmgr.dll

Regsvr32 qmgrprxy.dll

Regsvr32 jscript.dll



Note: If you encounter errors while registering any of these files then skip that file and continue with the next one.



If the issue persists, let's move on to the steps below to verify Windows Update services and temporary folders.



Step 2 Verify the relevant Windows Update services.

=========================================

1. Click Start->Run, type "services.msc" (without quotation marks) in the open box and click OK.

2. Double click the service "Automatic Updates".

3. Click on the Log On tab, please ensure the option "Local System account" is selected and the option "Allow service to interact with desktop" is unchecked.

4. Check if this service has been enabled on the listed Hardware Profile. If not, please click the Enable button to enable it.

5. Click on the tab "General "; make sure the "Startup Type" is "Automatic" or "Manual". Then please click the button "Stop" under "Service Status" to stop the service.

6. Then please click the button "Start" under "Service Status" to start the service.

7. Please repeat the above steps with the other services:



Background Intelligent Transfer Service

Event Log

Remote Procedure Call (RPC)



Note: Event log service is enabled on all of the hardware profiles; this service does not have an option to enable or disable on certain hardware profile.



If it still does not help, let's proceed to step 3.



Step 3 Reload the Update temporary folders.

===================================

One possible cause is that the temporary folder for Windows Update is containing corrupted files. Let's erase all the files there to get the system clean.



1. Click Start, Run, type: cmd and press Enter. Please run the following command in the opened window.



Net stop WuAuServ



2. Click Start, Run, type: %windir% and press Enter.

3. In the opened folder, rename the folder SoftwareDistribution to Sdold.

4. Click Start, Run, type: cmd and press Enter. Please run the following command in the opened window.



Net start WuAuServ



Please test the Windows Update website and let me know the result. If the issue persists, to clarify the issue and provide more accurate troubleshooting steps, please assist me in collecting the following information.

 

dll file not found after Creator's Update, Code Execution Cannot Proceed

Hi Aberfoyle,

It is possible that the
.dll file was corrupted during the update causing the error to occur.
To better assist you, kindly find the
.dll file
in
c:\Windows\System32. If you can find the
.dll file, it means that we need to
register
your
.dll file
to your
Operating System
for it to
work. To do this, we need to
unregister
the
.dll file
first and
re-register
it. Here are the steps on how to do so:

To unregister the .dll file:

• 
  Press
  Windows key + R, type
  Regsvr32 /u c:\Windows\System32\VCRUNTIME140.dll
  and hit
  Enter/OK.
  

To re-register the .dll file:

• 
  Press
  Windows key + R, type
  Regsvr32 c:\Windows\System32\VCRUNTIME140.dll
  and hit
  Enter/OK.
  

If you cannot find the
.dll
file in
c:\Windows\System32,
kindly run these methods of troubleshooting
so that we will know if the issue is within/not within the
Operating System:

Method 1:
Run SFC Scan.  

SFC
will
scan
and
run
an
automatic repair
to any
corrupted system files
that it will detect. We suggest that you perform it twice. To run an
SFC scan, follow these steps:  

• 
  Run
  Command Prompt as Administrator.  
  
• 
  Type
  sfc /scannow
  and hit
  Enter.   
  

Note:
Kindly run
SFC twice or thrice
and check for results before you proceed to the next method.

Method 2: Clean Boot.

Clean Boot
will
stop or disable
the
applications
that are running in your
computer's background.
To perform a
Clean Boot, click
here.

Note:
Reset the computer back to
Normal Mode
once you are done with the troubleshooting by following the section
"How to reset the computer to start normally after clean boot troubleshooting"
from the same article.

After performing these
methods of troubleshooting
and still the issue persists, we suggest that you contact your
computer/laptop manufacturer
for further assistance.

Update us on how it goes.

Regards.
