Here are some command-line utilities that can help you fix common Windows installation problems:

  • CheckDisk: Use Check Disk (chkdsk) to repair disk errors and check the integrity of your hard drive.

chkdsk C: /F

Replace C: with your drive letter.

  • SFC (System File Checker): This utility scans your system for corrupted files and replaces them with good ones.

sfc /scannow

  • DISM: The Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool is used to repair or replace missing or corrupt installation images.

dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

  • Check MBR (Master Boot Record): If your hard drive has a bad MBR, you can use the mbretune utility to fix it.

mbretune C:

Replace C: with your drive letter.

  • Fix BCD: The Basic Input/Output System is used by Windows to boot the operating system. If your BCD is corrupted, you can use the bcdedit utility to repair it.

bcdedit /get /m

This will display a list of available boot configurations on your system. You’ll need to edit the list to replace any invalid values with valid ones.

  • Check Event Log: An invalid or corrupted event log can cause installation problems. Use the eventvwr utility to check the event log for errors.

eventvwr /log: C:\Windows\Logs\NTDD2.log

Replace C: with your drive letter and NTDD2.log with a log file you want to view (e.g., %systemroot%\SystemEventLog\NTDD2.log).

  • Check System File Checks: Use the sfc utility again to check for any remaining system file checks that may have failed.

sfc /scannow

  • Run the Windows Repair Tool: If none of the above utilities fix your installation problem, you can use the Windows repair tool to reinstall Windows or repair a corrupted system image.

  • Check for Corrupted System Files: Use the msconfig utility to check if any system files are corrupted.

msconfig /fs

Replace /fs with F (fast) or /f (full).

  • Run a System File Checker with PowerShell: You can use the Get-Service cmdlet in PowerShell to run a system file checker and get more information about any errors.

Get-Service -Name Services -ActiveState Error | Get-Member

Replace Services with your drive letter if you want to check only Windows services.
