    uh... I'm sorry about that... The only one thing I just don't understand is that sometimes something goes crazy and decides not to work anymore... -,-
    I've got the same problem.
    Let's wait next updates.

    You could try running an SFC to see if that can fix any issues. Option 3 is the recommended action to try 1st.

    Note If SFC could not fix something, then run the command again to see if it may be able to the next time. Sometimes it may take running the sfc /scannow command up to 3 times with restarting the computer after each time to completely fix everything that it's able to.

    If not, then run the Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth command to repair any component store corruption, restart the PC afterwards, and try the sfc /scannow command again.

    I fixed it but don't know if it's a fix for everyone with the same problem. Somehow the permissions where changed, I went in and changed it and now it works.

    Code: takeown /f "%WINDIR%\System32\MRT.exe" /a icacls "%WINDIR%\System32\MRT.exe" /grant:r Everyone:F /c start "" "%WINDIR%\System32\MRT.exe"[/quote]

    [/quote] The last command returns that the app is blocked by group policies.

    I ran that command and it came out ok. SUCCESS: The file (or folder): "C:\WINDOWS\System32\MRT.exe" now owned by the administrators group.

  12. How about this one? But then again, if it is blocked by policies, this will not really help. *Rolleyes

  14. It's a logistics nightmare. You have to download the MSRT in order to run it manually these days. Did you try manually downloading the tool?

    No, I didn't. I use Malwarebytes Anti-Malware but I think I'll give it a try. Thank you.
