    sfc /scan

 

There is a space between sfc&/scan Copy the above and paste in your search box when you press the start button Lower Left hand. It will take some time to complete the scan. It does it when you restart the PC. Hope im not intrudding just seen you were offline Aura

No problem, I'm quite busy on the other forums I'm on, I try to stay active here on GTG too but it's not easy due to my position on these other forums.
Also, if the SFC /scannow detected corrupted files and repaired them, a restart is required to apply these changes, no matter what the message says at the end (except if it says "No integrity violation was found", obviously). Under Windows 8, you can easily fix the files that SFC couldn't fix using the DISM command, but you can't under Windows.
jeff, can you go in your Windows Updates Control Panel (Control Panel, Security and Updates, Windows Updates) then click on Search for Updates in the left pane and if any Important Updates are found, install them ?
