    Random BSODs since update last week


    Windows version 1903. Ever since a middle of the night update last week (10/5) the system has random bsods. Also cannot access the system information app, "windows management files may be moved or missing." although running sfc /scannow reports everything is fine. The windows/system32/wbem/repository directory has a file called corrupted.rec.
    Initially the scan did find some errors, ran dism /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth and /restorehealth, eventually we got to a place where they reported everything was good. But after almost 24 hours, another bsod.

    Frustrating. Maybe someday computer error logs will contain information useful to normal users.

    Any ideas and suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

    The 10/14 8:28PM dump indicates a problem with RTKVHD64.sys.
    Code:
    *** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for RTKVHD64.sys

    Driver Description: Realtek High Definition Audio Function Driver

    See here: Latest Realtek High Definition Audio Codecs

    The 10/12 6:45PM dump indicates a problem with Norton:
    Code:
    ffffbf04`d365fc88  fffff803`58a5aaffUnable to load image \??\C:\Program Files (x86)\Norton Security Suite\NortonData\22.5.2.15\Definitions\IPSDefs\20191011.061\IDSvia64.sys, Win32 error 0n2
    *** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for IDSvia64.sys
     IDSvia64+0xaaaff
    Please uninstall Norton completely and run with the built-in Windows Security (previously called Windows Defender) for now, see if that makes a difference. Use the Download and run the Norton Remove and Reinstall tool to get rid of it.

    You said SFC did not show or fix any errors. Did you also run DISM? Run these up to 3 times until the run without errors.

    Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup
    Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth


    Once they both run clean then run SFC one more time:

    SFC /scannow

    The V2 log collector reported meta data errors and was not able to collect important logs and data.

    Please post images of the scannow and dism results into the thread.

    After completing all of the steps posted by Ztruker please upload both new V2 and DM log collector results:

    at one time all of the dism runs and the sfc / scannow ran clean. System lasted perhaps a day before the next bsod.

    today sfc reports that there are problems it cannot fix.

    I may try updating the realtek driver, although that does not seem to be a reason for the windows management files to be moved or missing, which was true even after all the dism and sfc running. I would like to resolve that issue. I will note that windows thinks all the drivers are up to date. Is the operating system not capable of determining this?

    Norton has run on this computer for five years. I have seen advice as to uninstalling any other antivirus other than windows defender, but this would actually be a later resort.

    Every bsod has different error codes. We've had system service exception, kmode exception not handled, system thread exception not handled (failed: dxgmms2.sys), kernal check security failure, and a system service exception (failed: win32kbase.sys) are some I've noted.

    1) Open administrative command prompt and type or copy and paste:
    2) sfc /scannow
    3) dism /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth
    4) dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
    5) sfc /scannow
    6) chkdsk /scan
    7) wmic recoveros set autoreboot = false
    8) wmic recoveros set DebugInfoType = 7

    9) When these have completed > right click on the top bar or title bar of the administrative command prompt box > left click on edit then select all > right click on the top bar again > left click on edit then copy > paste into the thread

    10) Post both V2 and DM after performing the above steps:

    Created the usb drive yesterday. As a side issue, trying to find out if doing the repair that way will wipe out any installed programs. Will try that repair later tonight.
