NEVER run a command you don't know the purpose of. That being said, "sfc" stands for "System File Checker." It is a utility that can help restore corrupted windows files. sfc /scannow checks your protected files and restores corrupted files from a local cache. The process can take some time and you MUST let it finish it's entirely.

In conclusion, this command is generally safe to run.

Does it also remove the French language pack?
