    "sfc /scannow" with Vista

    I tried the "sfc /scannow" with Vista, but did not go anywhere
    Does MS omit this feature in Vista?
    If it is the case, how one can fix missing and corrupted files?
    Thank you.

    Yes, it is gone from Vista. In theory Vista silently replaces corrupt system files, AFAIK, and so shouldn't need SFC. Only time will tell on that one.

    Verify the Integrity of Windows Vista System Files

    Wonder if it works as they say.

    Well, I stand corrected. Apparently it is still there, despite having read that it had been removed. It looks like there is a lot to learn about what's been left in, removed or changed.
