SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker

How to Repair Windows 7 System Files with System File Checker​


   Information
The sfc /scannow command (System File Checker) scans the integrity of all protected Windows 7 system files and replaces incorrect corrupted, changed/modified, or damaged versions with the correct versions if possible.

   Tip
If you get the Windows Resource Protection Could Not Start the Repair Service error when trying to run SFC, then make sure that the Windows Modules Installer service is enabled, click on Start, and set to Manual.

Services - Start or Disable

OR

Copy and paste the command below in the elevated command prompt, and press Enter. After the Windows Modules Installer service has started, try running the SFC command again

net start trustedinstaller

   Note
The KB3022345, KB3035583, and KB3068708 updates will cause SFC to give you a false mismatch message in SFC for files related to these updates.

You can safely ignore these results in your SFC details since it will not affect SFC from being able to repair other system files.

   Warning
Be aware that if you have modified your system files as in theming explorer/system files, running sfc /scannow will revert the system files such as explorer.exe back to it's default state. Make the appropriate backups of your system files that you have modified for theming if you wish to save them before running sfc /scannow.

  • Option One: To Run the SFC /SCANNOW Command at Boot
  • Option Two: To Run the SFC /SCANNOW Command in Windows 7
  • Option Three: How to See and Read Only the "SFC" Scan Results from the CBS.LOG



OPTION ONE

To Run the SFC /SCANNOW Command at Boot


1. For how, see METHOD TWO at this link: SFC /SCANNOW : Run in Command Prompt at Boot

   Note
Using OPTION TWO below is recommended if able.

If you would like to get help with your SFC issue, then be sure to upload and attach your sfcdetails.txt file from OPTION THREE below in your post.





OPTION TWO

To Run the SFC /SCANNOW Command in Windows 7


1. Open an elevated command prompt or an elevated PowerShell, and do step 2 or 3 below for what type of scan you would like to run.


2. To Scan and Repair System Files
NOTE: Scans the integrity of all protected system files and repairs the system files if needed. Please see red WARNING box at the top of this tutorial.
A) In the elevated command prompt, type sfc /scannow, press Enter, and go to step 4 below. (see screenshot below)
NOTE: This may take a little bit to finish.

Command-1.jpg
3. To Only Verify if the System Files are Corrupted
NOTE: Scans and only verifies the integrity of all proteced system files only. This command will not change your system files as in the red WARNING box at the top of this tutorial.
A) In the elevated command prompt, type sfc /verifyonly, press Enter, and go to step 4 below.
4. When the scan is complete, hopefully you will see all is ok like the screenshot below.

   Note

  • If SFC could not fix something, then run the command again to see if it may be able to the next time. Sometimes it may take running the sfc /scannow command 3 or more times to completely fix everything that it's able to.
  • If not, then download and run the 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) System Update Readiness Tool for your same installed 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7, restart the PC afterwards, and try the sfc /scannow command again.
  • If still not, then try using OPTION ONE above to run the sfc /scannow command at boot.
  • If still not, then you can attempt to run a System Restore using a restore point dated before the bad file occured to fix it. You may need to repeat doing a System Restore until you find a older restore point that may work.
  • If still not, then you can use the steps in the TIP box in the OPTION THREE section below to manually replace the files that SFC could not fix if there are not to many fix.
  • If there are to many files to manually fix, or you prefer not to use OPTION THREE below, then you could do a repair install without losing anything.
If you would like to get help with your SFC issue, then be sure to upload and attach your sfcdetails.txt file from OPTION THREE below in your post.


Finished.jpg
5. When done, close the elevated command prompt.



OPTION THREE

How to See and Read Only the "SFC" Scan Results from the CBS.LOG



   Note
When SFC runs, it logs it's actions into the C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. The steps in this option will show you how to see only the specific SFC entries with the [SR] tags in this CBS.log. This can be helpful to show you what files SFC could not fix automatically if you wanted to try and manually replace them.

1. Open an "elevated command prompt" (right click -> Run as administrator).

2. In the elevated command prompt, copy and paste the command below, and press Enter. (See screenshot below)
NOTE: This will place a sfcdetails.txt file on your desktop with only the SFC scan result details from the CBS.LOG in it.
Code: 
findstr /c:"[SR]" %windir%\Logs\CBS\CBS.log >"%userprofile%\Desktop\sfcdetails.txt"
sfcdetails.jpg
3. Close the elevated command prompt.

4. Open the sfcdetails.txt file on your desktop to see the SFC scan details in the CBS.LOG.

5. You can safely delete the sfcdetails.txt file afterwards if you like.
   Tip
If you need to replace a corrupted system file that SFC cannot fix, then this will show you how to by extracting a new copy directly from your Windows 7 installation DVD.

Extract Files from Windows 7 Installation DVD





That's it,
Shawn

Thanks much, Brinks,
Iran sfc 7 times; BSOD'd first time; next two stopped at 49%; next two at 67% next two went to 100%.
As per your directions I generated the sfc details report - see attached file.
Again, thanks a million, and God bless.

Frank,

Try running the sfc /scannow command at boot in OPTION ONE to see if that may be able to fix them.

If not and you are having issues in Windows 7, then you might consider doing a repair install to fix them instead. If you are not having any problems in Windows 7 though, then I wouldn't worry about trying to fix the files then.

That's what bothers me, Brink,
The fact that after our earlier discussions in this thread, last weekend I did a repair install on my machine, did not reinstall all the apps i previously had, and yet this 'corrupted system file' recurrence.
Is it possible that I am starting from a position of file corruption in my 'family pack' DVD?
Can I use a friend's Win7 Home Premium (same edition) to repair install my machine and use 'my license' to validate?
Or can I extract the system files from my friend's OS and use that to repair mine.
Will still try your suggestion of trying option one of your tutorial, though.
These are the problems I'm currently having with my machine:
1. Unable to create system image backups
2. Of late, unable to update Win 7
3. Repeated intermittent crashing of all browsers (IE, Chrome, Opera, Firefox)
4. Crashing Windows Explorer, Com Surrogate etc.
5. Intermittent BSOD's (like clicking on a link in open web-pages)
6. Repeated 'corruption' of system files.
Appreciate your advice
Frank

Frank,

Sorry, I missed what we already did last week.

At this point, I would say that it may be time to consider doing a custom install of Windows 7 if you do not have backups, or a clean install if you do. It looks like your current installation is to corrupted to be repaired.

Does anybody know what "PublicKeyToken = {l:8 b:31bf3856ad364e35}" is? Looking through Henfracar's attachment I noticed most of the troublesome files mention that particular item. I googled it, and it looks like it is tied into WMP and the Vista sidebar, but I don't really know what it is or what it does.

Need help reading cbs.log

Hi,
Thanks for all the great info. I ran scannow a couple of times from within Windows 7 and twice more at the boot prompt. In all cases, scannow reported that it could not repair some of the files. I've extracted the cbs.log file to sfcdetails.txt as shown in the tutorial and was hoping someone more knowledgeable than me could help decipher it. BTW, I deleted all old entries in the file prior to today.

Thanks,
Mitchell

Hello Mitchell,

Luckily, you only have the file below that needs to be replaced according to your CBS.log.

C:\Windows\System32\tcpmon.dll


If you have a retail copy Windows 7 installation DVD, then you can use the tutorial below to help extract the file above from the DVD to save it to your desktop. Afterwards replace the file above with the extracted copy as in the yellow TIP box at the bottom of the turtorial below.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

cbs.log - reinstalling file

Hey Shawn,

Thanks for the quick response.

I followed the instructions on the link you included and made it to step 12 (copying the file from desktop to system 32 folder). I restarted the computer in Safe Mode with command prompt and entered the appropriate command to copy the dll file. Unfortunately, I received an error message "access is denied" when I tried to copy the file from the desktop to the system32 folder. I tried copying the file to another location successfully, so this tells me the problem is the system 32 destination folder.

I'm probably doing something stupid, but any help would be appreciated it.

Thanks again,
Mitchell

Mitchell,

Did you take ownership and set permissions to "Allow" your account "Full Control" of the C:\Windows\System32\tcpmon.dll file in your current installation before you tried to replace it with the extracted and unblocked copy on your desktop?

After the above, were you not able to just copy the file on the desktop, then paste it directly into the C:\Windows\System32 folder from within Windows 7 to replace it?

Stupidity is alive

Hi Shawn,

Well, I did take ownership and set permissions, but for the wrong file. I did it for the file I extracted--not the file I was replacing. Duh. So, I did it for the correct file and was able to copy it using the command prompt at boot. Scannow produced another error, but this time I was able to decipher it and found it to be tcpmon.ini, so I went through the copy procedure again and finally was able to run scannow with no errors. Yay! Again, thanks for all your help.

Hi again, Brink,
Thought I'd keep you 'in the ring' on this one;
Microsoft Support has finally acknowledged that my problems are rooted in a faulty Win7 Home Premium 32Bit DVD, and has advised that I seek a replacement from the seller.
I have a few questions posed to them and those are:
(1) should I try the 64Bit version included in the 'family pack'
(2) does trying the 64 bit version affect the software's EULA as far as my rights are concerned (I don't particularly want to go 64 Bit at this time, unless someone can convince me that it's the way to go) and can I revert to the 32 Bit version when my DVD replacement arrives.
(3) can I use someone else's 32 Bit software with "my license" in the interim until I procure the replacement pack from the retailer
I would also like to thank you guys for the very informed interchanges we've shared, and to let you know that I've learned a lot from interfacing with you'all.
Great Forum

Hello!

I am a bit late! lol. Anyway, see this link about Public Key Tokens: Dot net blog: Public keys and public key tokens

Richard

P.S. It doesn't really link the file together in any way, as that Public Key Token is the most commonly circulated one at the moment.

Hello Frank,

Q1) It wouldn't hurt anything to try using the 64-bit disc to just run the sfc /scannow with at boot.

Q2) Not at all.

Q3) Yes, you should be able to use a friends retail copy of Windows 7 to boot to a command prompt with and run the sfc /scannow command.

Try this one, Brink,
This may surprise you; attempt #1 at installing Win7 Home Premium 64 Bit version BSOD'ed; attempt #2 went to the first break when the "Press any key to boot from CD/DVD" came on and stalled there; attempt #3 BSOD'ed again; and attempt #4 was a repeat of #2.
At this point I gave up and went back to my tried & trusted XPSP2, from where I'm currently penning this note.
I shall not be going back/forward to Win7, unless something serious happens to XP, or until I can obtain the replacement DVD with SP1 already appended.
Until then I shall continue 'browsing' the WindowsSeven Forums periodically to keep abreast of all these very informative articles.
Thanks again for your inputs.

I've noticed that as soon as I've run sfc /scannow (and it goes through it's process) once it reaches 100%, the dialog box disappears quickly, not allowing me to read the results.

That never happened on XP before. Anybody know what's causing that? :huh:

Hello GWT,

That is strange. I've never had that happen to me before running it in a elevater command prompt inside Windows 7. I'm not sure what the cause may be, but you could do OPTION THREE to read the results instead.
