A few days ago my "Turn Windows features on or off" list stopped showing anything, so I ran SFC & SURT and made sure all windows services were on. SFC found files it could not fix, so I looked more into that and eventually found SFCFix recommended by some people. And now I'm here, I ran it and it found alot of corrupted files and that has now directed me here to look for help. I've attached SFCFix.txt alongside the SURT and CBS logs, any help fixing these files would be greatly appreciated as reinstalling Windows would be very annoying. Thank you all in advance.
