The command sfc /scannow

Hey wondering what it does. I saw a Youtube video that says it upgrades parts for free or something. I know that’s bull since Software cannot modify parts of Hardware but I’m still curious…

Probably a stupid answer but I’m feeling like I need to type something and not google it.

Thanks
Michael

I do know this. /sfc scannow needs Admin permissions, not just logged in as an admin though. Like right click and click Run as Admin

Won’t ask again.

Sorry but jokes involving viruses are not funny and advising you on how to bypass security so you can compile and send viruses would be highly unethical.

okay. I wasn’t going to send it too him. just going to show him on my Box. I understand why you won’t tell me though
