Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
    •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    chkdsk /scan If any errors found, stop and /f them

    Then:

    DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

    Finally:

    sfc /scannow

    Is that command line stuff? Hard pass for Windows users.

    Edit: I guess the Windows users didn't like that joke

    yes, it is. those are pretty much the definitive windows commands to try to fix random stuff like this too, if they fail then it’s reinstall time lmao

    [–] InFerNo@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 weeks ago

    Is fixmbr still used?

    [–] DacoTaco@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

    Sure, but then they shouldnt complain. Stuff break on linux too and when fixing them you also often have to open a terminal. When things are broken, a terminal is often the goto on any system..
