The DISM is an image of windows that sfc /scannow uses to scan for errors, when doing the dism online cleanup image and scanhealth that command only checks the windows image in your reserved drive's partition to make sure there is no corruption with that image. Restorehealth command fixes that image, so after all that is done still run the scannow command, to check your actual windows op system. So it's a two or three step process, Dism /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth to check the image for corruption, if found run the restorehealth command and if not go right to sfc /scannow.
@@ronaldevans5217 I discovered the DISM after one time of scannow not working, I googled fixing scannow and DISM commands are what came back, so being bold I tried them and sure enough the image was corrupted and restorehealth fixed it and then scannow worked again. That was years ago, and now when I am asked to help someone with their computer, these commands are the first things I do. That usually fixes their problem. I also install the Free version of Revo Uninstaller, because in the Tools tab there is a Junk File Cleaner and it's a deep cleaner and I tell them they need to run this after their last computer session for the day, every day. It helps keep the computer from slowing down.
Yes, you can run DISM (Deployment Image Servicing and Management) commands on Windows 7. However, the availability of certain DISM commands and options may vary depending on the Windows 7 Service Pack level and the version of the DISM tool. Here are some general guidelines: - Windows 7 RTM (Release to Manufacturing) and Service Pack 1 (SP1): Limited DISM functionality, with only basic commands available. - Windows 7 Service Pack 2 (SP2): More DISM commands and options are available, including the ability to repair Windows images. Some common DISM commands that can be run on Windows 7 include: - `dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth` (available in SP2) - `dism /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth` (available in SP2) - `dism /online /cleanup-image /checkhealth` (available in SP1 and SP2)
My computer says "use an elevated command prompt to complete the task after I put in your first input. I don't know what that means. When I ask Windows the steps they recommend don't work.
SFC (System File Checker) and DISM (Deployment Image Servicing and Management) are both Windows built-in tools used for system file repair and maintenance. The main differences between them are: SFC Scan: - Checks and replaces corrupted or missing Windows system files - Focuses on individual files and folders - Uses a local cache of known good files for replacement - Can fix issues with Windows system files, but not with Windows updates or components DISM Scan: - Checks and fixes issues with Windows system components, updates, and registry - Looks at the entire Windows installation, not just individual files - Can fix issues with Windows updates, components, and registry - Uses Windows Update or a specified source for repair files In summary, SFC is for fixing individual system files, while DISM is for fixing broader system issues, including updates and components. Often, running SFC first, followed by DISM, can help resolve more complex system problems.

How does this differ from sfc /scannow ?

In summary, SFC is for fixing individual system files, while DISM is for fixing broader system issues, including updates and components. Often, running SFC first, followed by DISM, can help resolve more complex system problems.
@@EasyTechGeek Great explanation👍👍
If I remember one can still use their computer while scanning - takes a while to scan
Yes thanks for adding!! ❣️😊
@@EasyTechGeek Can't remember - should one do a restart when finished?
Why .exe?
Corrected 👍
