After the files have been repaired, I run "check for updates" and it reports I am up to date - with the repaired files! I don't have any indication that the repair will undo the patch? Difficult to be sure!
Ok, I have had my coffee, so you can all come out now!

I can see how SFC could roll back an update's OS files, but Windows Update itself might not be aware the files have subsequently been replaced, and so - when checking for updates - all WU can tell you is that updates have been installed and it'll happily report everything's hunky dory.
I don't know if MS has ever fully documented what's supposed to be taking place...as such, if I have to run SFC after updating the OS...is the OS still up to date? Who knows, I avoid using SFC as its expected behavior under those circumstances is dubious at best (IMNSHO)...

Hip shot here...
The way corruption is often detected is to compare the CRC of the known good file to the CRC sitting on disk.
In the case of an update, it's maybe reasonable that the local table of known good CRCs doesn't contain the most recent information.
It might be that what is happening isn't changing the file to fix the corruption but rather updating the CRC in the known good CRC table by fetching the latest known good CRC from an online resource.
I don't know, but this makes way more sense than windows update writing bad data to disk on the regular.
Another possibility is that you have a failing drive or drive controller.

"Quote: In the case of an update, it's maybe reasonable that the local table of known good CRCs doesn't contain the most recent information.
I'd think the update process should handle this. When I deploy new embedded builds to products, the process includes updated CRCs. Then again, we are discussing Microsoft and Windows 11, so, YMMV.
OP - why do you do this after updates? Is there something wrong after updates? I'm typing this on a 5 yo laptop running Windows 10 Pro that has been updated so many times I've lost count. I've never run a disk check after updates.

fantastic: [^] Quote: “In talking with the press, Joanna Aizenberg, a Bell Labs scientist and the lead author of the study, likens the brittlestar to a digital camera that builds up a picture pixel by pixel. In this exchange, one quickly loses track of whether the digital camera is a metaphor for brittlestar vision or the reverse, especially as the metaphor begins to take on a strikingly material form:
'Instead of trying to come up with new ideas and technology, we can learn from this marine creature .... The [calcitic] lenses surround the whole body, looking in all different directions and providing peripheral vision to the organism .... This is the quality we all want to incorporate in optical devices, in cameras in particular. Instead of having one lens pointing in one direction, you could have thousands of lenses pointing in different directions. This will give you perhaps a 360-degree view of the whole space.'

The geographical center of Croatia is in Bosnia and Herzegovina?
It's a slow day, so I just thought I'd throw that out there.

Is that why there is a city in Croatia named "Split"?

Looking at a map it is clear why that is the case.
That region has been through all sorts of warfare and carving up since 1990's.

Well, the most recent round of warfare and carving up began in the 1990s's. It wasn't exactly pacific in the first half of the 20th Century.

The warfare in the Balkans has been going on at least since the Moslems invaded the area in the 7th or 8th century. While the Christians in Spain pushed the Moslems out in the 15th century, the Christians in the Balkans were less successful, and the war is ongoing.
