I have Vista Home Premium SP2 on a desktop, fully updated.
When I open "Control Panel > Programs and Features > Turn Windows features
on or off" the list is empty. It momentarily says "Please Wait...", then
never populates the list.
I read that it may have something to do with Windows Updates errors, so I
checked my history. I found 9 failed ones from 10-15 and 10-14. I went to the
windows download site and tried to manually install them. Every one I tried
ended with a message: "This update does not apply to your machine." I didn't
bother to try a couple of them since I do not use Windows mail. Maybe updates
had nothing to do with it. The problem persists.
I ran sfc /scannow and after completion it said corrupt files were found but
was unable to fix some of them. I don't have a Vista CD but I do have all of
the recovery disks I made when it was new, however I'm not sure how to
proceed.
Am I on the right track?
Thanks,
Rusty
