    You mean a *list* of those files, right? Actually providing them is illegal.

    If the machine boots, run
    Code:
    sfc /scannow
    If not a repair install would be a good option...

    You have install media?

    I found this nugget on the net and tried it:

    From an admin command prompt:

    Code:
    tree C:\Windows\Winsxs /F /A > C:\Users\Public\Desktop\winsxs.txt
    
    I did this on one of Win 7 machines and got the attached list. Note that your machine is likely going to be different, but if this helps, here you go...

    Unless you want to go blind comparing those txt files and then checking CRC's, I suggest you go the route suggested in #3.

    If you suspect malware, missing files may not be the answer, what's been inserted into otherwise legitimate files could be more relevant.

    Oh, without a doubt...

    I suggested as much earlier. but if he wants a list of a somewhat typical Win 7 core, why not ?
