How to Repair Corrupted Windows System Files
Symptoms: Your PC experiences driver errors, blue or black screens, and other problems that severely impact your daily use.
How to Fix It: The Windows 10 OS gives you two major tools to combat this issue. The first is the Deployment Image Service and Management Tool (DISM). The second is the System File Checker (SFC).
DISM
Step 1: Type powershell in the Windows search bar. Once the desktop application pops up, right-click and click Run as Administrator.
Step 2: Type in dism.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth in the Window which appears. Hit Enter and DISM will begin finding corrupt files and replace them.
SFC
Step 1: Open PowerShell from the Windows search bar. Make sure to run as administrator.
Step 2: Type sfc /scannow and hit enter.
This process will find and replace corrupt files. When it’s done, restart your PC. If corrupt files were the cause of your slow experience, your PC should run a lot more smoothly.
