2. Recover corrupted WinXP system files

If Windows XP system files are corrupted by viruses or other reasons, we can recover those corrupted files from the Windows XP installation disk.

Specific method: Search for corrupted files in the installation disk of WindowsXP. It should be noted that the last character of the file name is replaced with the bottom line "_" and rdquo; for example: if you want to search for "Notepad.exe" You will need to search with “Notepad.ex_”.

After searching, open the command line mode (enter “cmd” in "run" and enter: <;full path to the full path target file of the EXPAND source file”. For example: EXPANDD: SETUPNOTEPAD.EX_C: WindowsNOTEPAD.EXE. One thing to note is that if there are spaces in the path, you need to include the path in double quotes (quotation marks).

Of course, the best is found, but sometimes we can't find the files we need when searching on the Windows XP disk. One reason for this is that the file you are looking for is in the "CAB” file. Since Windows XP treats "CAB" as a folder, for Windows XP, just drag and copy the "CAB" file to the appropriate directory.

If you are using another Windows platform, search for the ""CAB” file containing the target file name. Then open the command line mode and enter: “EXTRACT/L the full path of the target location CAB file, for example: EXTRACT/LC: WindowsD: I386Driver.cabNotepad.exe. As before, as if there are spaces in the path, you need to enclose the path in double quotes. When WinXP is used for a while, the files in the pre-reading folder will become very large, and there will be dead links in the file, which will slow down the system time. Recommendation: Delete these files on a regular basis. (Windowsprefetch)
