Without knowing much about the machine, it's hard to say the best course.  The hash mismatch either indicates a corrupt file or possibly a virus.

I am assuming the machine is not running well otherwise there would have been no deed for the repair tool.

If you have eliminated viral issues - I would look at the link below and go with suggested method to - then re-run sfc

thx, re-running the Tweaking repair tool from the beginning seemed to fix stuff.
