    I am not clear about how to get the text document as last time it just gave me an empty text document
    Should I just go to cbs .log or something like that that's what it usually says

    Basically doing OPTION THREE in the same tutorial above to run the SFC command in a command prompt inside your running Windows 10. Not at boot or in safe mode.

    So basically doing option three and then doing option five?

    Last time I did option three after all the restarting and it did not work , do I just go straight to five?

    Did you do OPTION THREE first?

    If so, please post a screenshot show in the command prompt after running the command to see if anything stands out as a reason.
