repair windows using command prompt (cmd)

This nifty trick really helped me out a great deal a while back when my PC kept crashing when I tried booting it. The problem was that it took a long time to boot and when it finally did, it displayed a blank desktop with no icons or taskbar.

I tried checking out the solution and I found a neat trick using the Command Prompt or cmd that completely solved my problem.

First you need to access the Command prompt with administrative privileges. Open search box then [Type “cmd”> Right Click > Run as administrator]. This action will bring up a window like below:

NOTE: *DO NOT TYPE THE COMMAS

Type these command exactly as it is:          “sfc /”      then press ENTER  

That command will bring up the following list of associated commands below:

                             

NOTE: *DO NOT TYPE THE COMMAS

The list above is self explanatory so if you want to:

 Scan the whole computer and Repair, Type:   “sfc /scannow” then press ENTER 

                           

It may take a while to complete but when it is finally done, it will have repaired any corrupt files if there were any.
