Repairing Windows
Use the following commands to repair Windows
dism /online /cleanup-image /spsuperseded /hidesp
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
sfc /scannow
This will:
- Clean/remove old service packs (ones that have been superseded by others) and remove them from the list to be uninstalled.
- It then ensures that the system is "in sync" with the saved versions of known system files.
- Then SFC will be to able to detect and fix any problems with the system.
The two DISM commands will help ensure that the SFC command is able to run and repair windows.
