[SOLVED] SFC Cortana

Patm · Nov 8, 2015

I see other posts relating to SFC and DISM being unable to repair files, usually due to Cortana. This is my exact issue as well. However the support responses warn that others should not use the fix provided. Please advise how to get specific instructions for my 64 bit laptop versus reinstalling entire Windows 10. Thanks much.
