I found the command dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth while troubleshooting Windows errors. I want to know how it works and when it should be used. Does it repair corrupted system files or fix update problems? A clear explanation of its purpose and steps would really help.
 
In Microsoft Windows, DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image / RestoreHealth command is used to repair damaged system files and to fix update-related problems. Command Prompt will appear and should be opened as an Administrator, and then the command must be entered and Enter key pressed. The tool scans the windows picture and downloads healthy files where necessary. Once it is completed, re-boot your computer. A follow-up run of the System file checker (SFC) may also help to check and fix any lingering system file issues.
 
DISM repairs corrupted Windows system files.

Steps:

  1. Open Command Prompt as Administrator.
  2. Type: dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
  3. Press Enter and wait for the scan to finish.

It checks and restores damaged system files using Windows Update or a local repair source. Restart your PC after completion.
