Missing of Corrupt System Files in Windows XP

S

Sarah Carpenter

I have a friend who is missing some .dll and other system files in XP. I do
not like to use the XP Recovery Console, so I guess my question is, what is
the best way to get these missing system files back without using the XP
Recovery Console?

Thanks

Use the following procedure to correct Windows XP system files.

Go to Start > Run and type: CMD , and hit enter. In the resulting
Command Prompt window, type: SFC /SCANNOW , and hit enter.
You may be prompted to insert your Windows XP CD in the CD Drive.

SFC = System File Checker. SFC will scan your system and replace
missing or damaged XP system files with the correct version.
