Which build of Win 10 are you using ?

Go Start - type winver and press enter and let us know.

it all depends on what is causing that error to be honest. what i would do is try to run the program and all the steps 98% of the repairs are registry related. so you can easily restore the registry and it will be as if the WrAio never ran.
Now with that said do you get this error when you run windows store and try to update apps?

As you have the latest build then I assume you are getting this error when trying to download from the Store.

See if these cmds will anything for it.

Go Start or press the Windows key+x and select Command Prompt (Admin) - accept the UAC and enter -

dism /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup

dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

sfc /scannow

shutdown /r /t 00

and see if the problem is resolved after the reboot.

The first two cmds should report as successful and the sfc /scannow should report no integrity violations.

Let us know if either of the cmds report otherwise.

You can also use Windows Update troubleshooter from Control Panel/All Control Panel Items - Troubleshooting/View all and select Windows Update.

Was that error for the /restorehealth cmd ?

I think I'd see if a repair install would solve things.

This won't affect your personal stuff or installed programs.

If you don't have an install disk or USB then you can create either after reading the instructions at https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/windows10

That will give you the current version of 1703 15063.0 and the subsequent updates will update that to 15063.540.

When done, with Windows booted up, open Windows Explorer - This PC - insert the media and double click on the drive when the media comes up.

If using a disk, that will start the process but if using an USB, that will open the files where you will need to click on setup Application or you can right click on it and select Run as administrator.

Okay - let us know how you get on.

When the repair has completed, go into System protection to check that it is still turned on and then create a manual restore point.
