SFCFix

Overview

SFCFix is a system repair tool designed to work alongside the built-in **System File Checker (SFC)** tool in Windows. It is used to diagnose and repair corrupted system files that SFC alone cannot fix. The tool analyzes the SFC log, identifies missing or damaged files, and attempts to replace them with the correct versions.

SFCFix is particularly useful for Windows users experiencing stability issues, crashes, or system errors caused by missing or corrupt system files.

Features

Scans and repairs system file corruption that **SFC /scannow** cannot fix.
Analyzes and interprets **CBS.log** for detailed issue reporting.
Automatically replaces missing or damaged system files.
Portable and does not require installation.
Can be used in Safe Mode or Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE).

Review the generated log for details on fixed or unresolved issues.
