Banjo Griner Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 Does anyone know how to do this? I did it ages ago when my System Restore files disappeared, and it was done via Start>Run and typing in something or other (wish I'd made a note of it). It basically starts a scan of all your Windows components and checks they're all intact. You need your CD at hand to do it as it replaces missing bits - I seem to have been trojan-ed, so need to repair my system. I'd really appreciate any help.

fnkysknky Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 I presume you're on about the System File Checker. Run the 'sfc' command from a command prompt. The available switches are: /SCANNOW Scans all protected system files immediately. /SCANONCE Scans all protected system files once at the next boot. /SCANBOOT Scans all protected system files at every boot. /REVERT Return scan to default setting. /PURGECACHE Purges the file cache. /CACHESIZE=x Sets the file cache size.
