      a little while ago i got rid of a recurring unexpected_store_exception bsod by repairing system files, but i had to use Repair-WindowsImage -Online -RestoreHealth in powershell because sfc /scannow wasnt able to repair the corrupted files by itself

        sfc /scannow is to fix your Windows if it has corrupted files.

        Rebooting doesn’t, but it will reload all the files in your memory from scratch again, making it less prone to problems.

        But if the problems are that the files itself are corrupted, then rebooting will not help.
