i have also posted this at MSFN,...

my BITS service is off and cannot be restarted, and it's affecting MS updates. when i try to restart BITS i get error code 193: 0xc1. i have searched high and low for the last few days looking for a fix. also when i try and open Event Viewer i get another error saying MMC Snap-In cannot be created, same thing with Task Schedular.

oh, when i click on BITS properties while in Services i see that Path to Executable as C:\Windows\System32\svchost.exe -k netsvcs . is this correct?

i ran the HD test and passed.

other problems that may or may not be related are,

1. WMC will not open

2. HP Total Care Advisor will not open

3. HP Quick Play will not open

4. HP Quick Play hotkeys do not work

Have you tried running sfc /scannow to see if that repairs anything?

If you open Event Viewer (Start > Run > eventvwr) you will be able to see which files were replaced by reading the "Windows File Protection" events.

I am having pretty much the same problem. I ran the sfc /scannow and it fixed it well enough to work my google updater, but my windows update still does not work. I get the following response from the scan.

Microsoft Windows [Version 6.0.6001]

Copyright © 2006 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

C:\Users\******>sfc /scannow

Beginning system scan. This process will take some time.

Beginning verification phase of system scan.

Verification 100% complete.

Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of th

em.

Details are included in the CBS.Log windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For example

C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log

C:\Users\******>

The file, CBS.log is too large to attach here.

I'll look into this and see if there's a way to repair Vista's automatic updates.

I like Event Log Explorer™ to manage the Event logs and it works with Vista:

It requires a free Personal license for personal non-commercial use:

I have not been spammed by requesting the free license in the several years I have used Event Log Explorer™.
