Hello,
I am having issues with Windows Installer on a Dell Inspiron N5110, Windows 7 sp1 64 bit laptop. I've gone through numerous fixes and the sfc /scannow came up with Integrity issues (attached is the log). I can not update the computer, add or remove programs. One suggestion was to run a repair from a Windows 7 disk but I don't have one with SP1. What might you suggest?
Thanks,
Mags

It appears that the last scan was started at 13:32:48 on 10-18. The only error I see in that is related to amd64_microsoft-windows-u.
Once you remove that, see if sfc /scannow passes. I suspect that it will but won't resolve your original issues.
Not being able to update is a very common Windows 7 problem these days. This EE link provides some good suggestions about how to resolve them:

I've had good success with those suggestions. The offline updater is a very useful tool once you have the other KBs and agent installed.
I'm not sure if that will resolve the inability to add or remove programs, but I'd give it a shot.
