I am a new user to Windows Repair...in fact I am stuck on Optional Step 4. The System File Check Found "corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them" What should I do? Should I go ahead and run the repair, or what should I do? Thank you/

Ah okay I would need to see the log to see what it is saying.

repost this in this forum and I'll help you out.

You can also make sure to have the program do a registry backup and run all the repairs in Windows safe mode and see how the system does. Sometimes the files sfc finds or cant fix are minor, other times they are not, but the only way that effect the repairs is when registering files (If they are the wrong version)

So if that does happen you can simply restore the registry from the backup the program makes before the repairs

OK, but it just said what I quoted: Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them. If there was a log with specific info, I didn't see it, but I can do it again and see....

OK, I'm game, but not sure about all this...

I don't have that file!

Alright So I need to know what version of windows you are running.
Are you running the repair program in safemode? ( I uploaded a safemode batch file to help you get into safe mode on windows 8. if you needed help getting in that

)
lets skip the option for SFC for now and do a registry back then run the repairs.

Side note:
If you use my safemode Batch file Run as Administrator and choose the option for safemode with networking

OK...I have been working on this..I am running Windows 7 Home Premium and ran the System File Checker and the other previous steps in Safe Mode with Network. I have found the file and I have copied the information from yesterday onto a text file which I am enclosing. I can see at the end the System File Checker stuff, but I have no idea how to interpret it. So here it is! Thank you for all your help!

Oh, I just noticed that I typed the title wrong it should be 06-12-15 instead of 06-12-13 DUH!

To save time, I think this is the only part of the log that reports the repairs that could not be made? What does this mean?
