The System File Checker (SFC) is a built-in Windows tool that scans protected system files and replaces corrupted or missing files with correct versions from the Windows installation media. Running `sfc /scannow` in an elevated command prompt can often resolve errors related to corrupted system files contributing to System Error 1068.
