I'm having a problem with my computer. When I try to boot my Windows computer it says a particular file is corrupt or deleted, so it can't boot. Does anyone know how to recover Windows or fix this situation?

Hello, can you give more info about what the corrupted file is?  If possible, write down as much information about the error as possible and post it here.  Also it is very important for you to tell us what your operating system is.  Do you have an operating system installation disc?

Use system restore, and restore to a point when the problem did not exist.
