On a Windows XP machine you get an error about a corrupt system file. What utility can best assist you in correcting this issue?
  1. REGEDIT
  2. CHKDSK
  3. SFC

Explanation
Answer: C - SFC (System File Checker) would best be able to assist you in fixing an error about a corrupt system file on a Windows XP machine.

Key Takeaway: System File Checker scans and corrects errors with System Files in Windows XP systems (and windows versions before that). SFC has been incorporated into Windows Resource Protection in Windows 7/Vista. REGEDIT allows you to edit the registry, CHKDSK scans and fixes errors on the disk, and MSCONFIG allows you to make temporary configurations to how you start up the OS.
