If my reading of the explanation below is correct, it is best to use *dism* before using *sfc*. The following is an excerpt from Using the Deployment Image Servicing and Management Tool (DISM) to repair the Windows System Store <https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000122035/how-to-use-the-deployment-image-servicing-and-management-tool-dism-to-repair-the-windows-system-store:> . *The System File Checker tool can be used to repair corrupted system files. For more information on how to use the tool, refer to the following Microsoft article: Use the System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files <https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/929833>. The System File Checker tool compares those files against the .wim store that is saved on the system (not to be confused with the Windows Software Store app where you can purchase software for Windows). If this store is corrupted, the repairs may not resolve the problems that the system is having. The DISM tool has some modifiers that can scan and repair the .wim store based on parent copies stored on Microsoft’s update servers, making it useful to run in conjunction with a system file check.* -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
