Corrupt files in Deskcapes

from WinCustomize Forums

I have been having problems ever since the updates to deskcape and windowblinds-I can't play my fullscreen games so I have been reading the forums and found this and tried it-It found corrupt files-Do you think I should try uninstalling deskcapes-The games still dont work maybe they will after this-I dont know but I figured if there is corrupt files it couldn't hurt

Emailed support and they were able to show me how to fix it. 

 

"Please try the following:

-For VISTA Users: click Start, in the start search field type 'cmd'. Right-click on the search result and select 'Run as administrator'.
For XP Users: Click Start and then Run, Type 'cmd' and hit enter.
-VISTA ONLY: If UAC is enabled, click 'Continue'
-Type: sfc /scannow
-Wait for the scan to complete (this can take several minutes)
-When the scan has completed, it should give you some feedback as to the result"

I Ran this scan and it said

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

Details are included in the CBS.Log

The system file repair changes will take effect after the next reboot

C:\ProgramFiles\Stardock\ObjectDesktop\Descapes

The log report is quite long-I don't know if there is space on here for it but I can try if it will help

The SFC scan shouldn't be detecting anything having to do with DeskScapes.  It is the system file checker that determines if Windows system files have been altered.  More information here:

This issue may be deeper than DeskScapes in this case.
