Hi,
Based on your description, I recommend first using the DISM command to fix the system image. For the way this command is used, you can consider the methods mentioned in this article: "System file check (SFC) Scan and Repair System Files & DISM to fix things SFC cannot".
Also, regarding event 7031, consider the method mentioned in this article to fix it: "Event ID 7031 - Service Stop Operations".
Reply back with the results would be happy to help.
