Theutilities and fixes built into ADWCleaner are not intended to be comprehensive and I'm sure they don't want to risk including anything that might be hazardous to any users' systems if used improperly and that may be the case with some of these more advanced Windows system component fixes, though I am far from an expert on the subject.

If you were hit by malware or adware and have cleansed your system with AdwCleaner, your computer might still have some residual issues or might behave erratically. Then you are advised to use the 'Basic Repair Actions'.
Since Malwarebytes has decided to offer some 'Basic Repair Actions' (and not all that are possible), you might end up with a visit to the forum asking for assistance. There they will probably advise you to download and run [some other program], which essentially means that AdwCleaner has a sub-par set of 'Basic Repair Actions'.
The repair routines which have been public/common knowledge for years (most of the fixes in Tweaking.com's tools are nothing new/original; they just compiled mostly known fixes over time into what eventually became their repair tool which is why I also linked directly to the original articles/tutorials and MS support topics as well which describe each fix in great detail such that an individual could easily write a batch script to perform the fix routines (I have a folder full of such scripts/tools which I've created, developed and compiled over the years for my own uses). I just needed references to clearly indicate precisely what each fix/repair would require to make it easier on the Developers if they did choose to implement any of the requested fixes rather than making them do all the research.

Windows Repair is a complete software suite designed to repair and optimize the Windows operating system. It can fix common issues like registry errors, improper file permissions, problems with Windows Update and Firewall, and many others.
If your Windows system is facing temporary software glitches or system errors, you may try the following solution. First, shut down your computer and disconnect its power cable. If required, disconnect the CMOS battery from the motherboard as well.
I advise waiting at least 30 minutes before reconnecting the battery and power cable. Then, turn on your computer and adjust the date, time, and other settings in the BIOS as needed. Refer to your motherboard manual for guidance on how to do this.
The second step involves a quick scan of three system sections: Windows Packages Files, System Reparse Points, and Environment Variables. This scan helps identify any potential issues that may interfere with the repairs.
This step will conduct a health check on your primary drive, carry out any necessary minor system repairs, and scan the drive for bad sectors. Windows Repair will use the built-in Windows tool CHKDSK for this purpose.
