    I can perform the instructions up to the point of copying and pasting the %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log into the Run command screen.

    That only gives me an 'Access is denied' message.

    BTW, I see where the WLXPhotoGallery dump file is located but where are the other dump files located after they are generated?

    Hi,

    We appreciate your efforts in gathering the CheckSUR.log, however our support specialist are still requesting for the two remaining log files. The data that we could get from that will greatly expedite the process and ensure the completeness and accuracy of our investigation. To do this, please follow the steps below:

    Dump File:

    1. Open WLPG and even if it gives an error, do not close it.
    2. Launch Windows Task Manager and under Processes Tab, locate WLXPhotoGallery.exe.
    3. Right click on WLXPhotoGallery.exe and choose Create Dump File.

    CBS.log file: ****1.  Run cmd as administrator  (type cmd at Start search bar, right-click cmd.exe > Run as administrator) in the command window type sfc /scannow and then press Enter.

    1. After it completes, open the Run command screen
    2. Copy and paste this command to collect the CBS.log file: %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log

    Once you have the log files ready, please upload them on the private section of this thread.

    Thank you.
