I also tried manually repairing the C drive in file explorer, but when it boots up its like nothing got repaired because it only took a second. After, when I check file explorer and security and maintenance it is still there the error notice hw do I fix this because if my files disappear then it would be bad.

    Hi to anyone this might come in handy I found the solution all you need to do is go to setting then the updates and security, go to recovery choose the restart now (labeled at advanced start up NOT reset this pc). when you get there go to advanced options and you should see start up repair after the process it should be good.

    You are amazing. Thank you so much. I tried (what seemed) every trick in the book. This issue has plagued me for months and months and I just saw your post. This took care of it immediately and (for others to know) did not delete or change any files!

    Thank you so incredibly much for coming back to update everyone!
