Multiple ESENT Warnings Event ID 642 post 2004 Upgrade

Today 6/9/20 I got the update for Win 2004 along with several other updates. I installed the patch Tuesday updates before installing the Win 2004 update with no problems. I then installed Win 2004 update and I had no problems with it and after testing things on my computer everything seems to be ok but  I have run across in my Applications Event Viewer multiple ESENT Warnings Event 642. I do not seem to have any performance problems but who is to say that this will eventually cause some. The same thing happened when I upgraded to 1903 which was fixed by creating a TileDatabase folder by doing the below:

  • C:\WINDOWS\system32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\
  • (You may have to click on “Continue” when prompted.)
  • Once you are in the above mentioned location, right click and create a new folder and rename it as TileDataLayer
  • Double click on the TileDataLayer folder and inside the folder create a folder and name it as Database

I restarted my computer and they are still there. It would seem MS should have learned from it previous mistakes and fixed this before sending out another upgrade. I am not the only one experiencing this flood of warnings  as there as many others who have upgraded the computers to this bug infested updated. MS needs to be aware of this and just take a look at it and realize this is a bug and it needs to be fixed. People are losing faith in MS and their products and this should have been caught and fixed while in testing.   THIS is a MS bug and MS needs to address it and  come up with a fix either in an update or instructions to users on how to fix it..

    Windows support at "Get Help" said it is due to a "problem" with the Windows.old folder and the new 2004 install. Either remove the windows.old folder or do as follows should do the trick according to him:

    C:\WINDOWS\system32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\

    (You may have to click on “Continue” when prompted.)

    Once you are in the above mentioned location, rightclick and create a new folder and rename it as TileDataLayer

    Double click on the TileDataLayer folder and inside the folder create a folder and name it as Database

    Will try later and see if it helps.

    yeh it dont work.

    thanks

    I saw your post on my thread but thought I'd post my findings here just in case some only sees this one:

    It's now 10 days since 2004 updated and the Windows.old folder was automatically deleted. My ESENT 642 warnings in event viewer have STOPPED. I cannot answer as to crashing apps and slowdowns but as far as the ESENT warning goes, I think this was the solution.

    I'm a consultant to several dental offices and have upgraded them to 2004 and the latest Edge.  Every one is now getting a ton of the ESENT 642 errors with their main dental program crashing a couple of times a day.

    Hello Steve,

    I agree with you but I have noticed that after I do a restart I see one group of theme with 7 warnings. I asked about it and was told to ignore them. I do not know if you see the similar this. Now what MS needs to do is fix that damn Shared Experiences  in Settings that is giving a lot of people Toast Notifications that they need to fix their account there and also the problem with defrag. This 2004 version has been a nightmare.

    Regards,

    Don

    Thank you so much for responding. I can see where they might be a problem with the Windows.old folder and the new install. I will certainly keep an eyes out for the expiration time and let you know what I see. I have thoroughly tested my computers and the installed Apps and I have not encountered any problems but I did get a message about my account and all I did was click on Fix It and re-entered my password and it fixed. I did get two more updates after installing 2004. One was for .Net Framework and the the other was for Adobe Flash. All in all it went smoother than what I anticipated with all the problems I have read about. I will keep a close eyes over the next few days and if I see anything weird I will let you know.  Thanks a lot KenMel.

    Respectfully,

    Don

    I have the same problem with a clean install of 2004.  (No windows.old folder to delete) If its related to edge as some have suggested, could possibly be linked to the offer to install edge for windows 10, on completion fo 2004 install.
