Damage to system files can occur as a result of a computer infection with viruses, incorrect installation of programs and other failures. There are several ways to restore them.
Necessary
- - recovery disk
- - access to the Internet.
Instructions
Step 1
Insert the CD with the distribution kit of the installed operating system into the drive of your computer, after installing the boot from CD. After you have the first boot screen, go to the disk menu and select the command to restore the system.
Step 2
Then, follow the simple menu instructions and use the recovery disc to update the damaged or deleted system files of your operating system. This is useful if corrupted or missing files are interfering with your login.
Step 3
Use the utility to restore the operating system to its previous state. To do this, open the Start menu and go to the standard utilities. Run System Restore after shutting down all currently active programs.
Step 4
Use the arrow buttons to select the date when one of the restore points was created - they might have appeared on their own when installing any drivers or utilities, or you might have made them yourself.
Step 5
Select the one that preceded the changes to the system files and start the process. Please note that all changes made in the operating system during this period of time will be canceled, and all moved files will return to their previous directories.
Step 6
Create a recovery disk for your operating system just in case so that you don't have to reinstall Windows in the future. This is done using the standard tools of your operating system in the data backup menu.
Step 7
This is best done after installing the operating system and drivers in a working configuration. Also, do not create a recovery disc with a long-used operating system without first cleaning the registry from unnecessary entries and removing unnecessary programs.
