UPDATE :
1. DISM, SFC is working successfully
2. I have updated my windows to the latest update.

QUERIES:
1. Should I keep sfcfix and frst 64 & their respective logs?
2. Any idea what was the main cause? ( I am pretty sure that I read somewhere that Immediate shutdown due to powercut during a windows update is one of them)


Thank you so much @Maxstar for helping me .
If I would go to my local shop he would have told me to clean and install windows 10 by simply avoiding this detailed repair. ( for me the main headache is data backup and then restore)
But you helped me without losing a single piece of data.
I would pray all your wishes come true and that you will have great success in the future.
I wasn't expecting any forums to have this kind of help they provide to users until I met with SYSNATIVE
Thanks again. It means a lot to me.
 
Hi,

You're welcome. Glad to hear everything is working fine now, and thanks for the kind words.

There are several reasons for this kind of corruptions, like:
- Third-party cleaning tools such as registry cleaners and/or doubtful optimizing tools.
- Power and system failures during the Windows Update process as you pointed out.
- Hardware issues such as a malfunctioning harddrive or memory corruptions.

Should I keep sfcfix and frst 64 & their respective logs?

You may delete the logfiles and tools, you don't need them anymore.

Follow the instructions below to remove

FRST and all the log files.
  • Rename the file FRST64.exe to uninstall.exe and run it as Administrator.
  • This will remove all files and folders created by FRST and the tool itself.
  • To complete this the system must be restart.
