Windows 10: I think I bricked my PC(windows 10) by messing in WSL

I think I've screwed up in the most retarded way possible.

I was playing around in wsl , trying different things out.

Ran cd ~ to get to home dir

I had some useless html files there so I wanted to delete them

Ran rm-rf

N now my whole PC is acting funny, like a lot of softwares won't launch even though they were installed on D drive.

All the apps in roaming folder gone.

I ran sfc /scan now, got a log file

I'm running DISM ,but it's stuck at 89.8% for the past half hour

What should I even do now ? Is there any way to go back ?

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

WSL in windows Store

Actually, this is a consumer-oriented forum for general Windows 10 questions.

As WSL concerns mostly developers and Enterprise, I suggest asking there.

 

Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
