SCANNOW will replace any file that doesn't have a hash in the signed =
catalog. All protected files released by Microsoft are in a signed =
catalog so it should not revert anything that is valid.

I just looked it up and it will repopulate the cache
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=3D310747
I once made a computer unbootable using SFC but that was with 2K so =
I'm a=20
bit gunshy on using it.
Can I assume using the SCANNOW won't revert any crtical update files?
She has a Sony Vaio and they only provide a 'blast your PC recover CD" =
so=20
I'll have to use get her a copy of the system files on a CD

I think that SFC /SCANNOW may repopulate the cache. I'm not sure.

I did find a knowledge base article on replacing files in the =
dllcache.
=
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=3Dkb;en-us;555047&Product=3D=
winxp
It states that WPF cache is not protected and so it appears that I =
can
easily re-create it after running a chkdsk ( I had her run virus =
scans
already ) . I guess I should check the registry settings for cache =
size=20
etc
at
=
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=3Dkb;en-us;222193&Product=3D=
winxp
she's running XP Home so I don't think I can use gpedit.msc

I'll have her do that. She has a =
Windows\LastGood\System32\dllcache
folder.
I tried searching the knowledgebase and saw that one could change =
the
location of the dllcache folder so I was assuming that could be =
the=20
cause.
I've tried searches on XP and LastGood but just found instances =
where
people
mentioned the directory. I'll have to wait for her to bring her PC =
so I
can
check the registry settings for the location of the dllcache

There is a windows\system32\dllcache directory unless some disk
corruption deleted it. My suggestion is to run CHKDSK /F /R, =
reboot,=20
and
then try again.

I have a friend who attempted to upgrade to SP2 ( she has =
successfully
upgraded sp1 and all subsequent critical patches ).
While sp2 was in the process of backing up her files she =
received the
error
message
Cannot copy Windows\System32\dllcache\mshtmled.dll and she can't =
proceed
from there ( RETRY or Cancel).
I had her check her folders and she doesn't have a
Windows\System32\dllcache
folder.
She does have a Windows\LastGood\System32\dllcache folder but =
the
mshtmled.dll file is not in that folder either.
I doubt this is as easy to fix as copying some files to the =
dllcache
folder
as the dllcache folder seems to involve the Windows File =
Protection
Feature.
Besides Cancel and Retry to the error message she did have an =
option=20
to
point to the WIndows CD or directory where the System32 files =
are
stored.
Can I just copy the I386 files from a XP CD? She doesn't have =
the
ability
to do this as she only has a Recover ( blast everything away CD)
Any help is appreciated.
