I went to this site and tried the tweak. If anyone else did can they tell me how
to: "copy c:\windows\system32\sfc_os1.dll c:\windows\system32\sfc_os.dll /y
copy c:\windows\system32\sfc_os1.dll c:\windows\system32\dllcache\sfc_os.dll /y".
I tried to in the command prompt which didn't work because the file is being used.
How do I do this?
