When SFC Cannot Fix Corrupted Windows Files, DSIM Comes to Rescue

Just as the title suggested, on a Windows 10 host, I encountered a case that SFC reported that it could not fix corrupted files, and DSIM in this case helped. Below is the screen transcript.

C:\WINDOWS\system32>sfc /scannow

Beginning system scan.  This process will take some time.

Beginning verification phase of system scan.
Verification 100% complete.

Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them.
For online repairs, details are included in the CBS log file located at
windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For example C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For offline
repairs, details are included in the log file provided by the /OFFLOGFILE flag.
