Win 8.1 sfc /scannow returns Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation. (Network Steve Forum)

Win 8.1 sfc /scannow returns Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation.

I am running Windows 8.1 Pro.

I have been experiencing problems that lead me to believe the my component store is corrupted.

When I run sfc /scannow sfc immediately comes back with "Windows Resource Protection could not perform the required operation.

Here are the entries in the CBS file

Is there a way to rebuild the component store?

Thanks. Unfortunately, this isn't good news. The CanonicalData key is missing.

Unfortunately, its a small, but unrecreatable subset of data. If this is missing, servicing is broken on the machine and the system will need to be restored from backup or PBR.

So you will need to try a refresh or a re-install of Windows, unfortunately.

Hope this helps,

A small but unrecreatable subset of data... are you kidding us ?? Reinstall a whole system for a f**** key ? 2 years later I face the same problem and nothing evolved regarding this ? Why can't it be recreated ? Is it some kind of magical data that came from nowhere ??
