Running SFC (System File Checker) and DISM from Windows is easy. But what if your system will not boot? Today I'm going to show you how to run SFC and DISM from recovery. Its almost just as easy but there's a few more things you have to do.

Suggestion for a future video in the series: Things you should do BEFORE windows breaks to make it easier to revover. Turning registry backup back on ( See kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4qaZ4iMjd14hNE ) of course, but should I use the windows scan disk tool in properties? Should I optimize my SSDs? Create a recovery point? Anything special I should back up to a USB drive to make recovery easier?

I disabled that service to lower my disk usage? I subscribed and I am still reviewing your older videos for helpful tips. You do a great job making these things seem simple which I know are not that simple.

Thanks for this video and the last one also. Have noted down all the command. In the future when I have a Windows that fails to boot, I can "try" to fix it. Recently, I migrated a Windows 7 on a Asrock Z68 Pro3 with RAID1 configuration (one drive hardware failing) to a non-RAID SSD drive using MiniTool Partition Wizard - Migrate OS to SSD. That ended with error BlInitializeLibrary failed 0xc0000001 at boot. After many hours of trial and error, I was able to fix it with DISM++ (found on Sergei Strelec Boot CD/USB) - Toolkit - Bootmgr repair. Thereafter upgraded to Windows 10.

As an IT tech in the past, I used to use the prospect of reloading Windows as a pain point for my regular users who professionally destroyed their machines over and over. " Sorry, but looks like we're gonna have to start over...again" serves as a great learning experience for people who refuse to listen to your directions over and over on how to keep their machines running smoothly. With that being said, I eventually would allow to them that there is a way to repair windows fairly reliably after they had their collective heart attacks at the prospect of losing their data , but say " DONT DO THAT AGAIN!" . At any rate, I am glad DISM and SFC work like theyre supposed to.

SFC fixes a lot of problems with Windows. It's not just fixing one specific error message. SFC should be at least tried with all error messages. The tool scans Windows system files for corrupt files and replaces them with good ones if it finds any that have been corrupted.

Very useful! Thank for the effort. The $64 question for me and the one I couldn't solve for almost a year and I hope you ir someone here has the knowledge regarding that. The problem is my recovery cannot see any of my drives at all. Though Windows is running flawlessly. I do regular updates when they don't have problems. The system is 4 years old the hardware is almost one year old . 13 Gen CPU with Z690 MB. This is driving me crazy lol. If i took my NVMe and plugged it in my nephew's PC (6600x CPU and b560 MB), the recovery works perfectly. One more thing is that I have to make my recovery drive visible otherwise I cannot even go to recovery environment which is weird.

awesome video - finally someone that can explain the basics of this function - that said any suggestions when a message pops up to say DISM does not support a Windows Vista or earlier operating system. Thing is I have a Windows 10 I am trying to fix that is from 2022 and the iso image is 2023/4. I followed everything you had shared getting all the drive letters correct. I have to recover my system offline using a recovery disk - woke up next day with my computer unable to boot. I use UEFI to boot and I checked the EFI boot files etc and that is all in order now.

Sfc gives me: Windows Resource Protection could not start the repair service. Can I do anything else to save this Windows 10?

Never had to do this at all on Windows 7 and 8/8.1 as those OSes were super reliable and rarely needed repair but Windows 10 is a completely different story, in corporate environments we just wipe and load if the OS usually Windows 10 is corrupted. Alternatively the windows install USB does have another option called Refresh this PC which is less time consuming and does the same thing.

CHKDSK command also helps you find disk-related errors and fixes them automatically. If DISM was stuck at a certain point, a corrupt disk could be a reason. That is why it is recommended to run the CHKDSK tool to get rid of this issue. Although there are so many chkdsk parameters, you need to use /f and /r parameters only. In other words, the command will look like this: chkdsk c: /r.

Hi Rich thanks for this, just like you that DO IT RIGHT & make a difference by sharing knowledge I love doing the same in my field Architecture & BIM too because I have seen we get it all back. Over years I've learned a lot from willing "teachers" to be able to help yourself where no help is available. Today I'm stuck and hope you have advice for me or point me in the right direction? I've been hunting all over for a solution for a Dynamic (Invalid) Disk issue & not even my IT guru can help. My problem is the following: - I am upgrading my laptop main C drive for a much needed larger one. - The old 500GB M.2 SSD drive with Windows 11 & my software works perfectly when inside the laptop but it is too small. - I installed the new 1TB M.2 SSD drive + Windows 11 to the laptop & are setting up my software again. - When I put the old 500GB drive into the USB-Type C enclosure, the Disk Manager shows the disk is a Dynamic Disk and the status is "Invalid". - So I can not read the drive in Windows to access some software configuration backups and my project files. I am switch over gradually to the new drive. It takes a long time to set up all my software. So I am running work on the old drive till the new drive software is complete to keep project work up to date before the final switch to the new drive. How can I convert old Dynamic (Invalid) Disks into a Basic Disk without Loss of Data and (important) keep the Windows on it bootable during this transition?

It works great, but when I'm streaming/gaming it gets 82c and I am thinking maybe an extra $200 for a kit would serve me well; taking off 30c temp.

I had to do this just last week because I deleted a boot partition that was showing as an extra boot device in my Bios but only when the bios was in easy mode which was weird. In a program called "Easy EFUI" it was listed as hidden and I made sure it was the one I didn't need but when I deleted it bam my windows would no longer boot. I did not know about this video back then but when I made the recovery thumb drive and tried to do the start up repair as well as SFC and it failed and gave me an BSOD error that said could not fix disk or something and then gave some generic exception code. I eventually and I still don't really know how I did it used diskpart to rebuild the MBR I think, and even getting a few errors on the steps I followed from the internet, I somehow magically managed to get it fix lol. I think I did the same steps as in the video but in a different way?🤷‍♂ Anyhow I'm back up and running again and have once again learned never to mess with partitions at least not to delete any when I don't really know what I'm doing. I am glad though I did have enough primitive knowledge to at least fix it and the best part is the extra boot device no longer shows up in my bios as an option, was quite along day though. LOL

Not sure why there are 2 files for the 64bit version, nor why the extension was changed, as the wim files are not present for my install media in the x64 folders, unless it's some sort of chaining scheme where the x86 is used and the x64 is auto called by the code and the user is not meant to play a part ( M$ often tries to be too clever for its own good, or ours ). The second file is smaller, but the two together may have been to big as a single file, where as the one .wim file demo'd in this video just fit, not sure. Anyway figured I'd share my own findings in the case it was helpful to others. But I ain't one to gossip... .

This issue occurs because Microsoft's 'install.esd' file comes packaged with multiple versions of Windows (Home, Pro, etc.). When using the DISM command in the video, DISM fails as a result. It worked in the video because as he states @ 3:52 "I'm not gonna do that because I've already created one for myself." It seems he created a Windows install USB in a different manner from in the video or he created one a long time ago before Microsoft started bundling multiple versions within a single .esd file. We can fix this problem with a couple extra commands. For this entire demonstration, assume your Windows boot drive is C:, your Windows install USB is D:, and your scratch directory is 'C:\Temp'. Make sure to make modifications to any of these following commands if you're using alternate paths. First we need to extract the correct Windows image from the 'install.esd' file. Type the following command into CMD: DISM /Get-WimInfo /WimFile:D:\install.esd This command will output the 'index' values for each version of Windows within the 'install.esd' file. Make note of the index value that correlates to your Windows version. As of the Windows 10 22H2 MCT .exe, Windows 10 Home is index 1 and Windows 10 Pro is index 6. For the rest of the demonstration, let's assume you're using Windows 10 Home so we shall use index 1. Now that we have the index value of the Windows version we need, let's extract it. We can extract it to the flash drive or the boot drive. For this demonstration, let's extract to the boot drive. DISM /Export-Image /SourceImageFile:D:\sources\install.esd /SourceIndex:1 /DestinationImageFile:C:\install.wim /Compress:Max /CheckIntegrity This extracts the Windows 10 Home image file to the root of the boot drive (C:) as a '.wim' file. The '/SourceIndex:1' switch specifies the index for the Windows version, '1' is the index for Windows 10 Home; if you're not using Home (Pro, etc.) then change '1' in this switch to the correct index value that we retrieved earlier. The '/Compress:Max' switch compresses the '.wim' file to use less space but will take longer to do; if you don't mind using more space, you can use '/Compress:Fast' or '/Compress:None'. Now we can actually fix the issue! DISM /Image:C:\ /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:C:\install.wim /ScratchDir:C:\Temp If you still get the error, check your syntax carefully and attempt the above command one more time (Hint: press the 'Up' arrow key on your keyboard to retrieve the last executed command). If you still get the error even after checking your syntax and trying again, attempt to re-export the 'install.esd' file using the '/Export-Image' command but this time use 'Compress:None'; this will take up far more space but may fix any compression/decompression errors that may have occurred. This works for Windows 11 too! Hope this helps!

Hello Sir, thx for the videos and help! I just upgraded to Windows 10 from 7 and had some issues with updating and blue screen crashing from KMODE EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED ,figured that out. Now for some reason, the BIOS menu loads upon restarting but will not load and let me in. Can't spam f2 or del it just laughs back at me,lol. I dropped it off at the PC store locally and I stopped by today after they called me to say my pc was ready, when I get there he goes to show me how it is working fine now and it freezes on that bios logo for him too, hehe. Arghhh. I'll check again tomorrow to see if they figured it out. Thing is, I can't afford 55 dollars an hour to have them hand me a crazy bill that makes me wish I'd just bought a new computer! So I'm asking here, you seem pretty cool so I figured I'd try, Thx for Anybody's reply/help!!! Thank YOU

So I am an IT guy since 30 years for quite a few companies, many hundreds of systems... and it is literally now over a decade i needed DISM or SFC or any other tool to restore Windows files. I am curious: what exactly do people do to ruin their Windows in a way that DISM would help? I mean as a normal user they can't overwrite anything, even as an admin you can't overwrite the system files, since you are not "TrustedInstaller". And if a Windows Update fails due to power outage or crash or anything while updating, NTFS will roll the changes back. So what do people do nowadays since ~Windows Vista to be able to ruin Windows files at all? Really curious :)

I'm not sure how the Windows image gets corrupted. It could be numerous things. It could be a bad drive, a bad Windows update, or just Windows eating itself (corrupting its own files). I typically spend the majority of my time figuring out how to fix it and spend very little time trying to figure out how it happened.

combination of unstable 'gamer brand' RAM and motherboards with onboard unstable 'gamer brand' chipsets System messes up on its own over time. 🤷‍♀️ The user can even be some random USPS-mailman who never uses it for more than a minute a month to pay bills and then something silly like the navigation pane in explorer will just disappear permanently until SFC fixes it. Odd stuff like that. TrustedInstaller is as inbred as a duke on an unstable system xD

All my laptops & tablets do this (selecting enter not necessary) but none of my desktops will (I have five on them) Thanks in Advance

Thanks, I wish I had this tutorial before. 'Cause, I usually use _chkdsk_ commands to fix my drive or partitions inside the recovery, and most of the time it would fix the problems but it would take a lot longer, my last resort would be either *reset this pc* or reinstalling windows. I use it if I'm stuck on startup or loading screen due to sudden power outages or drive bad sectors.
