    Note

    If SFC could not fix something, then run the new command to see if it can be able to next time. Sometimes, it can take by running the sfc/scannow command 3 times restart the PC after each time completely fix everything what he is capable of.

    If this isn't the case, then run Dism/online/Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth to repair any corruption component store, restart the PC later and try the sfc/scannow command.

    If still no, then try using ONE OPTION above to run the command sfc/scannow at the start

    If still no, then you could do a Refresh of Windows 8, or run a System Restore using a restore point dated before the wrong file occurred to fix. You may need to repeat doing a restore of the system until you find a restore point that is older that may work.

    If not yet, then you can use the steps in the TIP box in the section THREE OPTION to manually replace the files SFC could not fix.

    Refresh your PC goes like this:

    • The PC starts in Windows RE (Recovery Eenvironment).
    • Windows RE scans the hard drive for your data, settings, and applications and puts them aside (on the same drive).
    • Windows RE installs a new copy of Windows.
    • Windows RE restores the data, settings, and applications, which it set aside in the newly installed copy of Windows.
    • The PC reboots into the newly installed copy of Windows.

    "When you reboot your PC, the drive will be completely reset and all your applications and your files will be removed it." Windows 8 will be reinstalled, and you need to change any settings, and then reinstall all the apps you want to come back after the reset. If you know if all the files you don't want to lose, then you must back up these files before you start resetting.

  • How would you define your industry sales promotion?

    Sales promotion continues to become a term very Council.  In the tech space it seems to be common around what sales promotion is in fact, other industries are trying to define.  Promotion sales includes reseller partners (that is to say the manufacturing and life sciences), internal and external advisors (wealth management, IE), agents (IE asset management)?  In addition, enablement will exceed supporting partner/Advisor/agent and include also allow the internal organization manage the recruitment of these resources?

    How would you define the sales promotion, and how did you put it into practice?

    Not sure that I even an answer to the question again... need her more ruminating.  But as someone who has a background in marketing in the technology sector and now it feels like the term sales promotion has become synonymous with marketing consultant fighting to not bring the 'golden' son fast enough or often enough.  The tools are powerful and what we as traders can provide these days is very different than even five years ago, but it seems that the 'Hunter' in sales is spent (particularly in small businesses) and was replaced by one or the other team of telequal who is really just taken stakeholders and call them to transmit a way (of sale) or the other (back to marketing) or by a team that wants to only call entering lead and very strongly censored conduit.  Despite the engagement of leaders in the industry such as lead scoring Sirius is used rarely, or not at all, and when he is he has been transferred to provide the speed of do not have the quality of the leads.   Scoring lead was swapped so far of his intention, that he can't spend perhaps the highest quality leads without any cables that respond to anything.  Somewhere, lead quality became lost and quantity has led to a passing cables fire hose back, so assume sales marketing can only produce volume and not the quality and the cycle starts again.

    I think that now it's time to redefine the sales promotion.  Provision of tools for sales, it is a single component, of agreement and mutual understanding around what feeds the process, the agreement on an advance of what is, for trigger points that move from one stage in the cascade to another, ALS and feedback on both sides around what works and what is not form the backbone of successful activation.  After that the process and tools are in place a robust feedback loop must be built, something that allows two parties to share (systematically) how things work in the field.  Somewhere in the middle of this loop, it goes beyond just sales and marketing and even involves the product teams to help them better understand how the features and functionality of the products they design are really vibrate with customers.  This feedback beyond the sales and marketing of the teams then form the basis for business enablement, truly enabling the success of the product and the company as a whole.
