If you are enlisted in the Windows Insider Program, specifically in the Canary Channel, you should know that running the SFC /scannow might actually be buggy.
Windows 11 will show errors when running this important task, but the Redmond-based tech giant said it has fixed the issue with the latest build to the Canary Channel, which was released last Friday.
Fixed an issue where SFC /scannow is showing errors every time it was run.
This means that your device shouldn’t encounter any more problems and can complete the task without being interrupted by errors.
Elsewhere, the latest build to the Canary channel introduces one of the best changes to ever be released to Windows 11: the addition of the percentage unit to the battery. The battery will also have a new icon and new colors to highlight its state.
This build also includes many other fixes. For example, File Explorer will no longer render windows incorrectly, and the Lock Screen will no longer crash when clicking the ‘sign-in options’ link.
At the same time, several new known issues exist, such as a green screen when accessing Roblox or when printing from some particular apps. Hyper-V might also not work correctly.
