Hi!
All of these began after un automatic upgrade that incidentally made
authentification by Microsoft impossible.
Using the last restore point,I managed to make the computer run
normally,including authentification ;but crippled by the inability to un
install certain 32 bits or uninstall certain 64 bits apps.
Solutions given on the Microsoft site 'Some Windows Vista functions may
not work, or Windows Vista may stop responding'
(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833) do not apply,because "sfc
/scannow" stops after performing 19% of the task.Hence "findstr /C:"[SR]
Cannot repair member file" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log >sfcdetails.txt"
doesn't work and "sfcdetails.txt" is not created.

What "automatic upgrade" are you talking about?

That is an update. The OP stated upgrade. Upgrade to what? An upgrade means
to go to a more advanced level of software. An update brings the software up
to current standards. For example, to go from Windows XP to Windows Vista is
an upgrade - although admittedly not in the eyes of all. To install service
pack 1 in Windows Vista is an update.

Question: Can ALL system files be EFFICIENTLY protected in Vista 64
Ultimate?

- Yes, all and efficiently
- All,but not always efficiently
- None efficiently
- Only some
- Not against bad upgrades
- Not if you inactivate certain Windows options
- Not if you selectively install upgrades
- Not if you install apps using Visual C++ or C#
- Not if you install other C++ compilers
- Not if apps install their .NET version
------------------------------------------------------------------------

You're right.I mean update.
