Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them
#1
Hi,

Recently i'm facing a issue with windows 7, When i turn on the machine there is a error massage that says "The program can't start because WINSPOOL.DRV is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this program". What is the cause of this issue & how to solve it? Someone please help me with this issue.

Thank you.

Hi Kesavan, Welcome to the forum.

Perform SFC scan


Click 'Start' > Type cmd in the search field > Right-click the command prompt at the top of the list and select 'Run as Administrator'
Inside the command prompt, type sfc /scannow > Press 'Enter'
4. Reboot and test.

How long has this been going on?

Can you do a System Restore?

Do you have a Win 7 install disc or borrow one off a friend?

Thumbs Up 
Thanks for your help and time Britec & GuiltySpark...

Didn't really had much time to test with the method you guys provide. I Have already solved the problem by recloning the machine & restoring backup.

Thanks once again guys for the support...
