> Services, locate Software Licensing & Restart it.

Hi
Try and run...
SFC /scannow
from the elevated command prompt.
I found one user who said this fixed it until he rebooted then it came back.
But it's worth a shot.

True I am experincing the same issue as aliasthad...Hi
It's strange that it keeps coming back every time the computer reboots.
It's just the same as the other post said.
This is a lengthy process but the next thing I would try is to run SFC /Scannow and then reboot into safe mode.
If is doesn't come back when you do that, then it is probably something that is loading that's causing the problem.
The next step is to figure out what it is that's loading that is causing the problem.
I don't know any way to do that except booting into diagnostic mode and turning things on a few at a time until you narrow it down to the one that's causing the problem.
If it still does it after booting into safe mode then it seems to be a more basic problem and not one caused by drivers or other apps loading.
Then the only option that I can think of is to try and do a repair install of Windows 7.
This used to be easy but now you have to remove Service Pack 1 before you can do the repair.

This seems to be a not uncommon problem but I can't find a solution.
I can find a lot of posts about this, even on this forum but so far no solution.
Here's a post from 2010.

If the only problem you are having is running the network diagnostic tool then maybe you should just ignore it.
If you have to run the diagnostic tool, run SFC /scannow first.
it can get to be a lot of work to make something that there is a work around for work in the normal way sometimes.
I hate to give up on these things but I've found that if I ignore them the sometimes they resolve themselves on their own eventually.

Hi,
I posted this in the thread I started about the same problem, but I may have found an answer, so I'll post it here too.
I compared the list of Services when the Troubleshooter is not working to the the list when it is working and there were only 2 changes. Here were the results:
When the Troubleshooter is working:
Background Intelligent Transfer Service Stopped
Cryptographic Services Started
When Troubleshooter Is Not Working:
Background Intelligent Transfer Service Started
Cryptographic Services Stopped
There was no change when turning the Background Intelligence Transfer Service on/off, but when I turn ON Cryptographic Services, the Troubleshooter instantly works! When I turn it off, the Troubleshooter instantly stops working again.
So I think this whole problem can be narrowed down to Cryptographic Services and whether it is on or not. It is currently set to Manual startup. Do you know if this would work permanently if it was set to Automatic? I'm going to try it anyway.
I hope this helps.
Kind Regards
**Additional: A quick look around the net suggests that Cryptographic Services is supposed to be set to Automatic.
Wow incredible I would have never thought that simply changing Cryptographic Services would stop this
dreaded error message.
Thanks so much aliasthad!
Forgive my late reply!
