Line 72:

System File Checker in Windows Vista and later Windows operating systems can scan specified files. Also, scans can be performed against an offline Windows installation folder to replace corrupt files, in case the Windows installation is not bootable. For performing offline scans, System File Checker must be run from another working installation of Windows Vista or a later operating system or from the Windows setup DVD which gives access to the [[Windows Recovery Environment]].

In cases where the component store is corrupted, the "System Update Readiness tool" (CheckSUR) can be installed on Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows Server 2008, replaced by "[[Deployment Image Service and Management Tool]]" (DISM) for Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows Server 2012 R2 or Windows Server 2012. This tool checks the store against its own payload and repairs the corruptions that it detects.Tool|DISM]].<ref>{{cite web |url=https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/947821#bookmark-checksur |title=Fix Windows Update errors by using the DISM or System Update Readiness tool |website=Microsoft|date=21 December 2015 |author= |accessdate= 10 May 2016}}</ref>
