    Am I the only one that has component store corruption after installing Powershell 5.1? Everytime, be it on a real machine or VM, after updating Powershell on 8.1 x64, sfc reports a bunch of Powershell files being corrupt and everytime it says it fixed the issue, it reports the same issue again on another run of the tool.

    Thanks, the error is clear enough in the log
    it seems not detected by SFC in en-us system because Powershell is localized in en-us by default
    but i did a manual hash check on en-us files and i can confirm the issue

    this is what i call false-positive SFC issue, similar to what happened in W7 preview rollup just two months ago
    https://forums.mydigitallife.net/posts/1381686

    it happens when a same system file is referenced (or shared) in two different WinSxS components
    if the file is changed/updated in one component, but not the other, SFC issue occurs

    in this case, the related files in WMF 5.1 are contained in new component assembly
    Code:
    Microsoft.PowerShell.DSCResources.Resources
    whereas same inbox Windows 8.1 files are contained in slightly different component
    Code:
    Microsoft.PowerShell.DSC.Resources

    hopefully they fix this bug in WMF 6.0

    for now, just do not run SFC repair unless you have problems
    otherwise PowerShell DSC function might get broken

    Yes, because it's the latest "security" rollup

    Thanks for reply. Asked because KB4040972 seems removed/superseded in WHD list.
