cosy Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 We usually use this command prompt to check and scan a Windows system for any corrupt or missing files. It helps to restore those files not working properly. Spoiler Open your CMD as admin, copy and paste the lines below in your CMD, then hit enter sfc /scannow For a Windows system one can also run the following command prompt to do the same thing Spoiler Open your CMD as admin, copy and paste the lines below in your CMD, then hit enter DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth in both cases, one has to reboot the system after execution Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the log file isn't all that easy to read or decipher for a normal user but it can be read by and one can use the date you ran SFC to tell what was not checked.

You can also try a few things mentioned in this article: https://www.thewindowsclub.com/windows-resource-protection-found-corrupt-files The "Use DISM" thing mentioned the article is the same one pointed out by cosy in his reply to you. This "Use DISM" command proposed by cosy, checks for component store corruption, records the corruption and fixes the corruption. Running DISM is useful if SFC is not working. I hope this helps.

Regards. I ran DISM.exe command,and I got "The restore operation completed successfully".After that,I ran sfc command,I got "Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files and successfully repaired them". I ran again sfc command,and I got "Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations". Looks like,the DISM.exe command way is more effective,than the sfc commad way.

Yes, it is.it does more than sfc /scannow DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth :- will scan the image for component which are corrupt, restores them, and does this operation automatically Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both tools work differently and complement each other. Dism try to download the corrupted files from the Microsoft servers if available, SFC works with the files stored on the HDD. Dism checks and fix the registry sfc doesn't... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
