Troubleshooting

General

I suggest that you run SFC scan on the computer to see if fixes the issue. SFC (System File Checker) checks for any corrupt system files and tries to repair them. To do so, follow these steps.

  1. At the Start screen, type cmd.
  2. You will find Command Prompt, right click on it and select Run as administrator from the bottom of the screen. At the command prompt, type the following command, and then press enter: sfc /scannow

The sfc /scannow command scans all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with correct Microsoft versions.
