Missing/corrupted system file in ..\system32\config and in ..\repair folder

Hello everyone,
Could you please help me with this proble ? I have got Windows XP PRO SP3 OEM.
Today when I started pc i have got error meesage system file in Windows/system32/config missing. When I look into folder system file is here, but maybe he is broken. I said fine no problém I have got Windows/repair. I only need to copy default file to config
folder.
But..
When I wanted to copy system file from Windows/repair folder there is no system file only system.bak. So I copy this file into Windows/system32/config and rename it onto system. I tried reboot PC, I saw starting Windows logo I almost jump into air, but after
few seconds my smile disappear. I got automatic restart. I tried it again, again and again same. So I tried run pc in safe mode with same result.
On the internet I read its can be by oem version of system. But where can I get system file now. Its possible to take system file form another pc ? Thank you for your advice.

Problem solved.
There is solution which help me, so maybe it can help to others.
Its better when you can unplug disk from pc and connect it to another via usb or via ata/sata such as another disk in the pc.
1. At first at computer you need to see invisible files and protected files of operation system.
Computer > F10 > Tools > Folder options
2. Now on the "corrupted disk" in the root you can see folder called "System volume infomation", but I think you dont have permission for it, right ?
Right click > Properties > Security > Add your self and add rights
-now you can open system volume information folder
3. open _restore{hexa} folder. Now zou can see a lot of folders started RP<number>, try to open the folder with higher nubmer. Next open snapshot folder. Now you can see a lot of files. But we want
_REGISTRY_MACHINE_SOFTWARE or _REGISTRY_MACHINE_SYSTEM, choose what you need. Now copy file whant you need for example _REGISTRY_MACHINE_SYSTEM and rename it for SYSTEM.
4. Open this path Windows\system32\config and rename your corrupted file. For example "system" to system.bad
5. Last copy your new "system" file from SYSTEM VOLUME FOLDER which you created in step 3 to Windows\system32\config folder.
6. Plug your hdd back into your pc and start pc and hope all will be fine :) .
I hope this instruction will help someone, good day and smile :)

Corrupt System File

Hello Mac-o-Philes!
Just repaired Permissions prior to doing a System Upgrade. Got the following error message:
Repairing permissions for “Macintosh HD”
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/DesktopServicesPriv.framework/Versions/A/Reso urces/Locum" has been modified and will not be repaired.

Any ideas? Thanks!

V.K.,
Thanks. I made a copy of the file, compressed it, and saved it to another location outside of the System Folder. Then I deleted the original. System seems to be running fine.
I will re=install it.
Please do reinstall it. and do not ever delete system files like this one! this is the wrong way to deal with permissions error messages.

I-Tunes update has corrupted system files

The latest version of i-tunes did not complete the installation process and now I am getting an error message "MSVCR80.dll missing from your computer" followed by "Error 7 (WindowsError 126). I cannot start i-Tunes. Tried to re-install but it will not complete the process. No i-Tunes or access to my library!

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.

Corrupted System Files, No Longer Boots

Note: I am trying to fix my grandfather's computer, and I may not know some exact details about what happened just before the problems began occurring.
About a week ago, the computer would refuse to boot up. It would sit at the gray screen with the Apple logo without the loading dial showing. I booted off of the Tiger install disk, and ran the disk utility.
When I verified the disk permissions, it gave the error, "Disk Utility internal error: Disk Utility has lost its connection with the Disk Management Tool and cannot continue. Please quit and relaunch Disk Utility." I get the same error message when I try to repair the disk permissions.
When I choose verify disk, I receive the error message, "First Aid failed: Disk Utility stopped verifying "Macintosh HD" because the following error was encountered: The underlying task reported failure on exit." Below in red, it says, "Invalid Key length
The volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired.
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit.
1 HFS volume checked
Volume needs repair"
If I tell it to repair the disk, I get the error message, "First Aid failed: Disk Utility stopped repairing "Macintosh HD" because the following error was encountered: The underlying task reported failure on exit." Below in red, it says, "Invalid Key length
Volume check failed.
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit.
1 HFS volume checked
1 volume could not be repaired because of an error."
Is there anything I can do to save the computer?
MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.9)

looks like you've got a damaged hdd. take it to the apple store. im not sure if they can help you, they might replace the hdd for u but im not sure if they'll be able to save your files...not much else i can think of, sorry!

Remote Desktop Services: corrupt system database, how to remove and start again?

Hi. This is my first Windows Server 2012 R2 installation, and I have a made a small mess. I'd be very grateful for any assistance in sorting it out.
I had some problems which I eventually tracked down to an incorrectly installed SSL certificate, but during my diagnostics, I foolishly deleted a row from a system table, thinking that if it messed up, I could always reinsert the row. Forgetting of course
that I couldn't recreate the ID of the original record because it's an auto-ID field. So I realise I'm an idiot.
I logged in to SQL server using:
\\.\pipe\MICROSOFT##WID\tsql\query
and deleted a row from:
Databases/RDCms/Tables/rds.Target
and from:
Databases/RDCms/Tables/rds.Pool
Predictably enough, the database is no longer coherent and RDWeb is not working properly, and I need to remove RDS and reinstall it.
I thought that removing the RDS server role and adding it again would do it, but the erroneous data is still there.
How can I get rid of it and start from a clean slate?
Thank you in advance for any help.
Stan

Hi Stan,
Thank you for your posting in Windows Server Forum.
Can you let us know the specific error you are facing?
In addition, you can try to use below powershell command to remove the rds role.
Parameter Set: Default
Remove-RDServer [-Server] <String> [-Role] <String> [[-ConnectionBroker] <String> ] [-Force] [ <CommonParameters>]
Remove-RDServer
In addition, you can refer this thread
for reference. Also check "Disaster recovery options for the RD Connection Broker
2012 (HA)" article.
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

Re: EQuium A100-147, wont start, \windows\system32\config\system -missing-

This laptop Equium A100-147started not connecting to internet normally, but would in safe mode.
So after trying virus scans-nothing.
System restore-nothing. I decided to put in the recovery disc and reinstall windows media.
I changed boot sequence to install it, changed boot sequence back to original.
It has reinstalled but will not go by the Windows Screen, A message has come up \windows\system32\config\system -missing or corrupt.
I cannot even see a way of doing a repair with this recovery disc??
Any help would be appreciated
thank you in advance.

That error means the Registry is corrupted.
The registry is made up from the following files:
c:\windows\system32\config\system
c:\windows\system32\config\software
c:\windows\system32\config\sam
c:\windows\system32\config\security
c:\windows\system32\config\default
You can restore these Registry files from the hidden System Restore folder on C: Drive.
Here are the instructions:

My Vista system crashed due to a corrupted windows file. When I reformatted C:/ & reloaded firefox & tbird, my bookmarks were gone. I have an image of the drive , but I don't know how to recover them and get the data back where I can access it.

Vista system crashed due to a corrupted system file. The C drive was reformatted, and windows reloaded, along with the rest of my programs.
Before the drive was reformatted, an image was made of it on a USB drive to save all the data. Now I need to know how to get the Bookmarks back for Firefox, and the Address Book back for Thunderbird.
Thanks

Thanks for the quick response. It worked very well, for both Firefox and Tbird.
One hitch, until I remembered: those are all hidden files, in hidden folders. I had a devil of a time finding the "roaming" folder, until I found out how to unhide everything. In years past, I used DOS for that kind of thing. Explorer is much less user-friendly. Now that I know how to do it, it's simple.
Thanks again for the guidance

Windows Deployment Service corrupts \systemroot\system32\config\software in images.

Hello,
Recently we have upgraded to Server 2012 R2 to handle our WDS services but some images are not deploying correctly.
When checking the event log on the machines that do not deploy correctly, the following error message is discovered: "\systemroot\system32\config\software was corrupted and it has been recovered'
We can restore the SOFTWARE registry backup from the regback folder and this corrects the problem, but this has to be done after the image is deployed and takes a lot of time.
The WIM files all deploy fine in all instances of deployment on Server 2008 R2, using DISM directly and ImageX.
For one image, this only occurs on certain machines. It has been tested on 3 Z200 with the same hardware setup and the error occurs on 2 consistently and does not occur on the 3rd.
On another one of the images, this error occurs every time it is deployed using Server 2012 R2 but never when deployed using WDS on Server 2008 R2, DISM or ImageX.
This occurs whether the deployment is set attended or unattended. The majority of deployments have been tested without using an unattended file to eleminate variables.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Any ideas would be appreciated.
Edit:
We have also exported the WIM file of the image that always "breaks" from WDS 2012 R2 and successfully deployed it every time using 2008R2 WDS DISM and ImageX.
We have created separate folders for these problem WIM files so that the RES file only contains the information from the specific WIM that is having problems; this does not fix the problem.
Edit 2:
There is an error in setupact.log but it onlys says that the mentioned registry setting is malformed or corrupt. I tried a web search on this and had results but the majority of the answers were related to errors sysprepping.

We have discovered that this is only happening to target computers with installed
RAM greater than 4gb. If the machine has greater than 4gb of RAM, the mentioned corruption occurs. If the machine has
4gb or less, the corruption does not occur. We still have not found a fix for this, (besides removing the excess RAM during imaging and reinstalling after.) Any ideas/thoughts would be helpful! Thank you in advance.

Iphoto missing system files

I have just re-formated my hard drive and re-installed panther. When I load up iphoto an error message comes up: "missing essential system files, please re-install using you ilife dvd". But I only have the factory operating system installer disks which contnain iphoto 5 as part of bundled software. Can anyone help? Is my hard drive corrupt?

Hi Litsa,
iPhoto must be missing some System framework files. Hopefully, you can find the answer on one of the links.

Officejet 4635 "operating system files missing"

I've installed the driver software for the officejet 4635 for windows 8 64 bit, but in setting the printer up it gives me the following error message:
"Operating system files missing
The following operating system files are missing and are required to install your printer. Please repair the files using your operating system CD and click Retry to continue installation:
C:\Windows\inf\ntprint.inf"
I've tried reinstalling the software. The computer seems to recognize the device as a fax, but not as a scanner or printer. Anyone wanna help me out?

Hi @pgreene88 ,
I see that you are getting a operating system error, during the installation of the printer. I can help you with this.

System file corruption-alternatives to erase&install?

To make a long story short(er) I restored from (SuperDuper) backup after the HD failed and Apple gave me a new one. Then problems occurred with the system being slow (hesitating a lot) and having trouble connecting via wireless and finally not connecting at all, and then the machine ended up in "limbo" (according to the Mac Genius.) Now I've been told to erase and install, but I'm reluctant... There's a years worth of tweaks, updates, and installs on my MacBook! (After all, that's why I was so fervent about backing up...) And Boot Camp too.*)
Evidently "some" corrupt system files made their way into my backup before the old drive failed. (There was no warning; one day it was just gone.)
My question is, is there a way to figure out/diagnose which system files are corrupt and to replace only those? Or, alternatively, is there a way to "erase and install" only the system? Please forgive my "lack of Mac," I come from many years with Windows.
*)I'm assuming I can use Winclone to restore Windows (if I really have to erase the drive) once I repartition using Boot Camp. Um, all I have to do is remember how big I made that partition...

I suggest that you start with an Archive and Install (checking the box to preserve settings). The last time I did this was in an upgrade from 10.2 to 10.3 on our little iMac G3, and after it finished, everything was just exactly the same as it had been under 10.2, except for one thing: those little pictures were gone by the users' names on the login screen (it was trivial to reconnect those pictures with the names). So I would try that, and see if your issues are fixed. If they are not, then there is another step you can take, which is to delete your preference files that are associated with the problem (i.e. wireless, airport). and if these things are not effective, then I would proceed with the full erase and install. I haven't done the Archive and Install with Tiger but I don't think it gives you a lot of options about what setting to save ... I think it's either all or none.
By the way, before doing any of these things, you should make at least one complete backup or clone of your entire disk.
Also, before doing Archive & Install or Erase & Install, create a new user and login as that user to see if the problem goes away. If it does, then there is not much point in doing a new system installation because the problem would have been pinpointed to your local user files/preferences, not the system-wide software.
I am not surprised that the Apple Genius suggested Erase/Install versus Archive/Install. The Erase/Install is guaranteed to fix any software issue, so the Genius won't need to deal with you in a follow up anymore. They have people lined up and want to just get you on your way, even though it might cause you a lot of work to recover all your settings and installed software (that's your time, not his). The Archive/Install is also highly likely to fix almost all software problems, but if it's something corrupted in your user settings, then it might not, in which case you'll be back and he'll have to deal with you. So he's suggesting killing a fly on a window with a sledgehammer, when maybe a flyswatter would work just as well (and cause less collateral damage to your house). I understand the motivations of a busy Apple Genius, but from your point of view, it would be better to try the other things before finally going to the erase and install.
Remember to do that backup before trying any of these things.
In general Macs do not need to have system software reinstalled. In fact I have never had to do it as a repair/diagnostic step on any of my machines using Mac OS X (except that one Archive and Install I did, but that was on a healthy system to go from 10.2 to 10.3).

Firefox 26.0 update corrupts windows system files

I updated firefox mid-December 2013 on a pc running Windows 7. Everything was fine until I shut down. Windows would not start. Safe mode would not start. We eventually found that there were corrupt system files. We fixed those, uninstalled the firefox update and everything was fine. At that time I was not certain firefox was the source of the problem because I had installed other updates and programs.
I just updated to firefox 26.0 (no other changes made), shut down, and couldn't launch windows. Uninstalled the update and fixing my sytem again.

EXS File missing in Logic Pro 9: Unisyncl.wav and Unisynch.wav

Hi to everybody!
I just installed logic pro 9 and this is my first experience with logic.
Using it I noticed that some files are missing. These files are: Unisyncl.wav and Unisynch.wav.
Searching the internet I discovered that those files belong to logic 8 and are located in the folder:
/Library/Application Support/Logic/EXS Factory Samples/05 Synthesizers/04 Sequence Elements/Spectrum Stack 01/UniSyncH.wav
/Library/Application Support/Logic/EXS Factory Samples/Analog Samples/Spectrum SQ/UniSyncH.wav
Please someone can send me them by mail or internet hosting service?
My mail is: [email protected]
Really thanks to all

Yes, I have them - both samples are in both folders:-
/Library/Application Support/Logic/EXS Factory Samples/05 Synthesizers/04 Sequence Elements/Spectrum Stack 01/UniSyncH.wav
and
/Library/Application Support/Logic/EXS Factory Samples/Analog Samples/Spectrum SQ/UniSyncH.wav
These are on the LP8 content disks but not on the LP9 content disks, strangely enough.
These will be only up for a short time as technically it's Apple content. I'm doing this to help you out as you're probably more than a little frustrated. Please post back when you have downloaded them.

How can I repair Vista system files with only a Toshiba recovery disc??

I have pretty much come to the conclusion that the reason I can't install Vista service pack 2 is due to some corrupt vista files. I ran the program that checks that system files and it said some are corrupt. There are some things I can't do, like turn on the Windows firewall even from that special adminostrar screen, or if I schedule a check disc scan, when I reschedule it for start up, it doesn't do it at startup. I had a Red Screen about a year ago, and it did a bunch of stuff and at the end, it said you had a major event and contact your administartor. Well, I am the administartor, lol. Anyway, it worked fine and I attribute these problems to that event.
Vista discs come with a repair option. All I have is the Toshiba disc that lets you reinstall the Toshiba and Vendor applications OR reformat the hard drive. I am not going to spend days trying to get my system back to where it is by tracking down everything I have installed especially when its working. Is there a work around? I will buy a Vista Home Premium disc if I have to before refortmatting. I have an x205-S9349 with Vista Home Premium. THANKS!
