Problem with the command: sfc /scannow

Question

Dear All,

Every time I run from the CMD the command: sfc /scannow I receive the following error:

"Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files and successfully repaired them.

For online repairs, details are included in the CBS log file located at

windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For example C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For offline

repairs, details are included in the log file provided by the /OFFLOGFILE flag."

I've tried everything to fix this but no results!
Can you please help me?

Thank you very much!

PS) My PC is recently formatted and I install clean version of Windows 11 24H2 Pro

Hi there,

It's a bug in 24H2. Please ignore it. It's most like caused by incorrect hash references in the COMPONENTS registry hive.

Hi, Dimitrios Karantinopoulos

Welcome to the Microsoft community.

If you are using the 24H2 system and recently reinstalled it, are you experiencing any anomalies? As this is a major version update, there might be some minor issues. Please use Win+F to provide feedback on this issue.

If you encounter more serious problems, could you describe the specific issue? You can try using In-Place Upgrade to repair your system, which is a comprehensive step to fix system file corruption and can solve most issues with system file corruption.

In-place upgrade which will refresh your Windows files and operating system without removing files or applications. That being said, we always recommend that if you have important data, you should back it up before making large system changes. If you want to back up your data first, please do so. Once you are done backing up, you can follow the steps in the following guides:
