Sorry to say this nothing helped me.When I run Microsoft Fix It for automatically diagnosing and repairing common software problems in Windows.The problem in Hardware and Devices are detected and fixed but again when I run troubleshooting from Control Panel the problem is detected and its showing not fixed.And I think I have some problem with Network Adapters.And also I am unable to change the Windows Installer startup type from Manual to Automatic.The option is greyed out.And I am having a problem with Bluetooth pairing.

Hi Sibin,

Thank you for your reply.

Windows Installer manages how other programs are installed and uninstalled on your computer, hence if it is set to manual, it would not install any programs automatically and would need your confirmation prior to being installed.

Use the System File Checker tool to troubleshoot missing or corrupted system files on Windows:

•    Click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, right-click Command Prompt, and select Run as Administrator.
•    Click Continue or supply Administrator credentials if prompted.
•    In the Command Prompt window type the following, and press Enter: sfc /scannow
•    You should see the following on-screen messages:

                  Beginning the system scan. This process will take some time.
                  Beginning verification phase of system scan
                  Verification % complete.

•     Once the scan has completed you will receive an onscreen message which would be like one of the following:

                 …found no integrity violations
                 …found corruption but repaired it
                 …found corruption that it could not repair

•      Please reply with the completion message that you receive.
•      If SFC could not fix something, then run the command again to see if it may be able to do so the next time. Sometimes it may take running the sfc /scannow command upto 3 times (restarting the PC after each time) to completely fix everything that it's able to.

Please keep us posted on the results. Also, let us know the error message, if any, when you pair the bluetooth headset.

Thanks and regards,
