How to Perform SFC scan in Windows 10

In case a Windows Resource Protection (WRP) file is missing or is corrupt, the system would face abnormal issues like blue screen errors.

SFC scan is a utility which helps fix missing or corrupt files in the system. The procedure for an SFC scan is as follows:

1] Search for Command Prompt in the Windows search bar and right-click on the icon. Select Run as administrator.

2] Type the following command and press Enter to execute it:

DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

It would need a few minutes to process.

3] Then type the following command and press Enter to execute the SFC scan:

sfc /scannow

4] Restart the system once both of the commands are executed.
