The sfc /scannow command is a powerful tool in Windows that helps repair missing or corrupted system files. Here’s how it works:
- Open an elevated command prompt (you can search for “Command Prompt” in the Start menu, right-click, and choose “Run as administrator”).
- Type sfc /scannow and press Enter.
- The command will scan all protected system files and attempt to replace any corrupted files with a cached copy located in a compressed folder at %WinDir%\System32\dllcache. The %WinDir% represents the Windows operating system folder (e.g., C:\Windows).
- Do not close the Command Prompt window until the verification is 100% complete.
