dm_log_collector - NO FILE!

Repeated BSODs. I run dm_log_collector and after running it immediately deletes the zip file that it creates. It's not in my recycle bin either.

Advice?

Just ran it again and apparently I wasn't paying close attention. It creates an sf_debug folder on the desktop, and at the last Press any key to continue prompt, it deletes the folder. The zip file is never created. (I have avast & disabled it.)

So before the last press any key prompt I manually zipped it up.

Not sure what the problem is, but at least now I have something to submit to get suggestions for fixing my totally unstable Win 10 "upgrade".

Thanks.

"Upgraded" from a very stable Windows 7 Pro X64 machine to a completely unstable Windows 10 Pro X64. If bsods and reboots constantly (looked in my event log and it did it approximately every 10 minutes overnight!) The dmp file says ntoskrnl.exe is the faulting application.


It is incredible the number of hoops I have to go through.


1. Chkdsk /f/r/x was run and no problems.


2. sfc /scannow (NOTE: this was also done in safe mode) says


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


The CBS log shows a number of problems, mostly about opencl.dll. E.g.:
000056ba Hashes for file member \??\C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\opencl.dll do not match actual file [l:10]"opencl.dll"

3. Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth:

4. Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth:

AARGH.


6) I extract the install.esd in the iso, and convert to install.wim.


dism /Get-WimInfo /WimFile:install.esd
dism /export-image /SourceImageFile:install.esd /SourceIndex:1 /DestinationImageFile:install.wim /Compress:max /CheckIntegrity


7) DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /source:WIM:c:\temp\Install.wim:1 /LimitAccess

WHAT? Why is there even a 32-bit version on my system??


9) cd \windows\system32

Before uploading my debug archive, I'll now see if I get any more BSODs.


QUESTION:


I would like my Windows ISO to contain the .wim file and not the .esd file. What is the easiest way to do so?
A) The links to the techbench ISO is no longer valid.
B) ESDtoISO didn't do anything when I ran it (admin cmd prompt).
C) Any easy way to replace the file in the ISO? Or should I try and create a new one?


This has been a really frustrating and time consuming experience. I am regretting "upgrading" and may go back to Windows 7 which never gave me any problems.


Thanks so much.

My continuing sage about my "upgrade" from a very stable Windows 7 Pro X64 to a very unstable Windows 10 Pro X64.

All the things that I have done are detailed in the thread here: https://www.tenforums.com/bsod-crashes-debugging/57893-dm_log_collector-no-file.html#post753596

The final sfc /scannow did not help matters. I am getting an ntoskrnl.exe BSOD reboot every 10 minutes.

I have uploaded the debug zip file here; only the last minidump has been included. There are 49 more in the directory and they are all the same, so it would have been superfluous to include them all.

I have spent hours on this and if I can't resolve this very frustrating problem I'll be going back to Windows 7.

Appreciate any assistance.

DAMN! So I tried the Driver Verifier mentioned here: Driver Verifier - Enable and Disable in Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums

Rebooted, got KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED error. It automatically rebooted again, same error. Rebooted again, then "Windows couldn't load correctly" and a Restore to Previous version. (It didn't give me an option

Now I'm at an earlier version and I have to change my drive mounts.

Pissed at myself, as I neglected to create a restore point first.

Sorry, axe0, I mentioned my issues with dm_log_collector and then veered off into my BSOD problems and then created an "official BSOD" post. Should have stuck to the topic here.
