PC Checker Won't Run Again
Sep 17, 2015
I have a PC that failed the initial check for Windows 10 compatibility because of an old video card. I since have removed it and put in a new Nvidia that is 10 compatible. I have installed it and rebooted and left it on for a week.
If I look at the scheduled tasks I see that the tasks for the analysis looks like it has run but when I pull up the Windows 10 check PC window it says it last ran over a month ago and still shows the reason it can't do the install is because of the old video card.
I have search and tried the command line to force the compatibility checker to run again but still no go.

The last few days I've been changing and customizing some of my start menu icons in Windows 10, largely because some of the program icons clash with the Windows Store app tiles and I wanted the start menu to look appealing.
I ran a system file check via Powershell with administrator privileges and I had zero issues. Then, I changed the icon of Windows Defender via Start > All Apps > Windows System > Windows Defender > right click > more > open file location and changing the icon of the Windows Defender shortcut in the destination folder.
Then, I ran system file check again and now it continually fails and cannot fix the corrupted files. I've since changed the icon back but the issue persists.

Have used Windows 10 for awhile now with no problems. Yesterday, on 18 Sep I updated I Tunes. I don't know if that is linked to the problems that followed since it had been more than 24 hours since I used the PC. I tried to play Day of Defeat and it worked for awhile, but then froze up. Could not control-alt-delete and had to power down, then power back up. PC said Windows did not load correctly and do you want to try again. I said yes and Windows came up OK. Tried to play Day of Defeat again to see if the problem still existed and the game was all herky jerky and not playing correctly, but I was able to close it.
Checked around on the internet. Ran System File Checker. Came up with "could not fix corrupted file taskhostw.exe, source file in store also corrupted." Got same response to bthenum.sys. But, the last line of the SFC details said, "Verify and Repair Transaction completed. All files and registry keys listed in this transaction have been successfully repaired." So, were they fixed or not fixed? I tried to go to restore to go back to an earlier restore point, but then I got system protection error 0X8000FFFF, with most buttons grayed out. In services, microsoft software shadow copy is running on manual, task scheduler is running on auto, and volume shadow copy is running on manual. I have tried the first and last on auto, but still cant access all system restore capabilities or the scheduler to schedule restore points. I did have three restore points listed and have tried the two oldest with no improvement.
I have tried disc check and disc cleanup with no changes noted.
I have a USB recovery thumb drive and partitions on the hard drive. If used, I guess that will cause me to lose all my loaded programs, same if I "reset" the computer.
In August I added Malwarebytes to run a scan as things were acting oddly then. I guess it was Malwarebytes anti-exploit because now I can’t uninstall Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit. I get, "File “C:Program files (x86)Malwarebytes Anti-Exploitunins000.dat” does not exist. Cannot uninstall." I added malwarebytes anti malware as part of my recent efforts, but only found some PUP files. Windows defender found no viruses.
How do I get my PC to begin working properly again? Do I have to go the reset/recovery route and then rebuild everything?? Or is there a better, less terrible option?
How do I get system restore to work properly?
How do I get Day of Defeat to work properly?
