The Troubleshooters section gives you one-click access to the various troubleshooters tucked away in the Windows Settings app, including tools to fix problems affecting your printer, network adapter and PC sound. Fixes are applied instantly, though you may need to restart your PC for them to take effect.

Rather than baffle you with jargon, FixWin uses plain English to explain problems you may be experiencing, such as ‘Recycle Bin icon is missing from Desktop’, ‘Cannot connect to internet’ and ‘Start menu doesn’t open’, as well as error messages like ‘Task Manager has been disabled by your administrator’.īefore you click the Fix button to repair a problem, click the question-mark icon to learn exactly what FixWin will do, such as delete a specific registry key or run a particular command. If these don’t help, you can explore its range of fixes, which are organised into logical categories, such as File Explorer, Internet & Connectivity and System Fixes. The program’s Welcome screen provides handy shortcuts to run the System File Checker (SFC) and DISM commands, which are often all you need to fix PC errors, as well as the option to create a system restore point before you make any changes.

FixWin provides one-click repairs for dozens of common issues and annoyances, in an attractive, easy-to-understand interface, and it works with both Windows 10 and 11. You can fix many problems with Windows by tweaking the registry or running special commands, but unless you know what you’re doing, you could further mess up your PC.
