Windows 10: System file checker found a lot of corruptions and I don't know how to fix them, will...

I ran the scf/scannow, several times and many corruptions were found. Also, there are hundreds of the same items in all different locations, even locations I never knew about. I am afraid to delete anything. I am running DSIM online Clean and Restore Health; I copied the link. Will this fix the problems? I lost my Ethernet connection, I tried everything but it's still running on Bluetooth devices. I am trying to avoid a clean install, I just got all new updates. Thank you.

Please perform the below steps and see if it helps to resolve the issue.

This issue may happen due to system file corruption. I suggest you to run System file checker. System File checker (SFC) scan is done to check if there are any corrupted system files that could be causing this issue. Kindly follow
the below given steps:

• Press Windows key + X, select
  Command prompt (Admin) to bring up elevated Command prompt.
• In Command prompt type sfc/scannow and press enter.
• Restart the computer.

If no corrupted system files were found in the previous state, then I suggest you to try the following steps:

• Open command prompt by pressing Windows key + X and selecting “Command prompt admin”.
• In command prompt, type the following commands and press Enter after each command:

DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth

DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

• Close the command prompt and restart the PC and check if it works.

Hope this information helps. Please post us if you need any further assistance with Windows.

Thank you.

 

System File Checker Problem


The computer is not running slow and no BSOD screens. All my computer specs are listed, if anything is missing that I need to add, let me know if needed to resolve this problem.

1st - I ran the sfc /scannow command:





So I rebooted and ran the DISM restore health:





It completed successfully and I rebooted. So I ran the sfc /scannow command again and it fixed the corrupted files:





I then rebooted and ran the sfc /scannow command again and it found no violations:





I shut down the computer for maybe a half hour and all of the sudden the sfc /scannow found corrupt files again when I ran it. The screenshot isn't necessary because we already know what it looks like from my first image.

This is part of my CBS log that I think points to the culprit; but I'll attach the whole log for anyone that can help:
