herme3 Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Windows Vista seems to keep an error log at C:\Windows\INF\setupapi.app.log. Whenever I run a virus scan using the CA eTrust AntiVirus that was created for Windows Vista, it creates a large amount of data in the error log. It starts out like this: cpy: Get PnpLockdown File 'C:\bootmgr' status=2 class=0 !!! cpy: IsPnpDriver 'C:\bootmgr' !!! cpy: Error 2: The system cannot find the file specified. cpy: Get PnpLockdown File 'C:\bootmgr' status=2 class=0 !!! cpy: IsPnpDriver 'C:\bootmgr' !!! cpy: Error 2: The system cannot find the file specified. cpy: Get PnpLockdown File 'C:\BOOTSECT.BAK' status=2 class=0 !!! cpy: IsPnpDriver 'C:\BOOTSECT.BAK' !!! cpy: Error 2: The system cannot find the file specified. cpy: Get PnpLockdown File 'C:\BOOTSECT.BAK' status=2 class=0 !!! cpy: IsPnpDriver 'C:\BOOTSECT.BAK' !!! cpy: Error 2: The system cannot find the file specified. cpy: Get PnpLockdown File 'C:\caavsetup.log' status=2 class=0 !!! cpy: IsPnpDriver 'C:\caavsetup.log' !!! cpy: Error 2: The system cannot find the file specified. cpy: Get PnpLockdown File 'C:\caavsetup.log' status=2 class=0 !!! cpy: IsPnpDriver 'C:\caavsetup.log' It keeps going and lists almost every file in my computer. Is this normal? What do the errors mean? The AntiVirus program once corrupted my hard drive, and I had to run Windows Scandisk to fix it. Do these errors explain why that happened?

JustStuit Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 That's why I wait for new OS until they get most of the bugs worked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
