- Press Windows key + X and select 'Windows Terminal (Admin)' or 'Command Prompt (Admin)'. Type 'sfc /scannow' and press Enter. This scans all protected system files and replaces corrupted ones. It may take 15-20 minutes.
- If SFC finds issues but can't fix them, run DISM. In the same admin terminal, type 'DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth' and press Enter. This repairs the system image that SFC uses to fix files.
- If the error occurs during Windows Update, go to Settings → System → Troubleshoot → Other troubleshooters → Windows Update → Run. This tool can fix update-related issues.
- Check for corrupted registry keys: Press Windows key + R, type 'regedit', and press Enter. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Component Based Servicing. Look for any suspicious entries, but be careful — editing the registry incorrectly can cause serious problems. If unsure, skip this step.
- If the error persists, perform a repair upgrade: Download the Windows 11 ISO from Microsoft's website, mount it, and run setup.exe. Choose 'Keep personal files and apps' to reinstall Windows without losing data.
