I wrote about "Event ID 1008".

Since the following keyword was recorded in the log, I decided that it was a log that notified that there was a problem with the performance counter.

BITS
Perflib (source)

BITS is an abbreviation for "Background Intelligent Transfer Service".
Perflib is an abbreviation for "Performance Counter Library".

Well, the main subject.

I found that the event is recorded in the event log when the setting of "Background Intelligent Transfer Service (service name: BITS)" of Windows service is "manual".

Since I was able to stop logging, I will share the details of the findings and the steps I have taken.

If you are thinking of using this article as a reference, we recommend that you read the additional information in the "Postscript" before starting the work.

Please take responsibility for your actions.

Event Log

The event log is reprinted.

Event Log

Repair procedure

[Tools to use]

Windows service
command prompt
Or Windows PowerShell

[procedure]

View BITS properties
Change startup type to automatic
Rebuild performance counter (several times depending on the situation)

1. Display BITS properties

Start the Windows service and view the BITS properties.

In the list of Windows services, BITS is shown as Background Intelligent Transfer Service.

How to start Windows service: Scrap 2nd.

2. Change startup type to automatic

Change the BITS startup type from manual to automatic.

3. Rebuild performance counter

Start Windows PowerShell (or command prompt) in administrator mode and execute the following command.

lodctr /R


>_	Administrator: Windows PowerShell	ー □ ×
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32 >lodctr /R Info: Successfully rebuilt performance counter settings from system backup store

How to start command prompt in admin mode: Scrap 2nd.

Run multiple times

In my case, the first failed, but the second succeeded.

Let's run it multiple times until it says "Rebuilt successfully".

When it ends normally

Info: Successfully rebuilt performance counter settings from system backup store

When I fail

Error: Failed to rebuild performance counter settings from system backup store. The error code is 2

Afterword

Addendum: 2018/08/12

When you update to Windows 10 Version 1803, BITS whose settings have been changed will be initialized to "manual".

However,

The 1008 error is not recorded in the event log, so the startup type (Automatic | Manual) may not be related to the error.

First of all, I think you should try the previous section “3. Rebuilding the performance counter”.

BITS

The role of BITS is as follows.

Transfers files in the background using idle network bandwidth.

Disabling the service will prevent applications that rely on BITS, such as Windows Update and MSN Explorer, from automatically downloading programs and information.
