Cant defrag or system restore?

Darren046

Hello, hope someone maybe able to help.Have gone to do disk defrag this morning as i normally do once or twice a week and was given the msg MMC cannot open the file C:\WINDOWS\system32\dfrg.msc.This maybe because the file doesnt exist etc...So i thought i'd click on help and support in my start menu and that isnt working.So i then thought, i know i'll use system restore but when i click on it all i get is a white box with no info inside.As you can guess i'm no expert on computer prob's. Everything else seems to be working fine.I would be very grateful for any advice . Thanks

imho

If that was me i would click on start then run ,type in sfc /scannow with the gap between c and / and just let it run.

Have you tried system restore in "safe mode " ?

And this
try booting using to safe mode by pressing F8 as

the system boots and then select to boot to the "Last Good Configuration".

Ok this looks like someone has the same problem as you with system restore and defrag
