The `sfc /scannow` command (System File Checker) scans and repairs protected system files. Corrupted system files can sometimes be the root cause of update errors like 0x80072eff. Run `sfc /scannow` in an elevated command prompt. It will attempt to replace any corrupted files with correct versions.
