I would suggest you to "Refresh your PC" again...
...but this time, be sure to download run Norton Removal Tool and the McAfee Consumer Products Removal Tool & reboot BEFORE you install (or attempt to install) ANY updates.

Yesterday my SFC /Scannow command, run from Powershell Admin found corrupt files it was unable to fix. I expected The Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /Restorehealth command to take care of it. Instead it reported "error 0x800f0906" and said it lacked the files to repair the problem.
I looked up error 0x800f0906 in a Dism command. It suggested a repair that started and stopped services, a
net stop wuauserv
cd %systemroot%\SoftwareDistribution
ren Download Download.old
net start wuauserv
net stop bits
net start bits
net stop cryptsvc
cd %systemroot%\system32
ren catroot2 catroot2old
net start cryptsvc
It also suggested Windows Update was malfunctioning and that I should fix it from The Troubleshooting screen. I did, and SFC /Scannow came up clean and Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth reported error code 0x800f081f instead.
I then used The Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup and The Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup /ResetBase Commands. I then used The Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth Command and it reported "No component store corruption detected." I thought I was in the clear, but Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth keeps reporting it found and repaired files and The Troubleshooter keeps reporting it's fixed problems in Windows Update. Probably not the biggest deal in the Windows world but a little unsettling.

2015-07-02T23:05:22+00:00 Microsoft Telephone paid support told me not to worry about these functions finding corrupt files unless they can't repair ones Sfc /Scannow and Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /Scanhealth find. They didn't address the startup issue.

2015-07-02T22:51:06+00:00 Yes. My startup is erratic. Since I last posted, my computer crashed and took me to the Reset Function. Microsoft Telephone support told me to run The Compatibility Troubleshooter after installing all 3rd-party programs. I did, and restarted the computer after using The Troubleshooter. Since then, my startup is erratic, but sometimes very fast. My fan is mainly quiet. Sfc/Scannow finds no trouble, run from Windows Powershell both in Standard and in Safe Mode. Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth does the same. Dism /Online /Cleaup-Image /StartComponentCleanup and Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup /ResetBase both work splendidly, both in Standard and in Safe Mode. Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth still always finds problems but repairs them. sfc /SCANNOW run from Recovery's Command Prompt X: does the same. Windows Update Troubleshooter and Windows Program Compatibility Troubleshooter also still always find trouble and repair it. Startup Repair still gives up repairing startup instantly.
