Is there a way to fix the corrupted files? I have a laptop with a good file. Can I simply replace the corrupt file with the good one?

What I have tried:

I haven't tried anything. I use my laptop for things that don't work on the corrupted desktop.

The first question is what makes you think the file is corrupt?

Today I used SS Management Studio to access my database on GoDaddy's server. It failed with a message about System.Drawing. So, I used my laptop to successfully load it. I have experienced problems since I used a Norton tool to clean my PC. Yea, it wreaked havoc with lots of files, including VS. VS 2019 still won't handle images after being reinstalled. VS 2019 works fine on my laptop.

You didn't click Reply on my message so I never got a notification you posted a reply.

You could always just uninstall the .NET Frameworks you have installed and reinstall them. That takes care of more files than just the one SSMS complained about. There's possibly more it didn't get to because it found the one problem.

Thanks. See my comments to the solution below. I'll continue with using the current .NET frameworks and wee what other problems appear. I guess my difficulties demonstrate "if it ain't broken, don't fix it". It also helps to have at least 2 computers with the same stuff. And I have NAS, too. I am gradually learning to use these comments properly. It still is confusing when the red accept solution appears. When I click said button, it becomes Reject Solution. I probably would have used two buttons.

We aren't tech support for MS: they have a huge number of people (most of which are pretty technical) who do just that and can really help - and they can dive into your PC with your permission and work out what is actually wrong and help fix it. Give them a try - they know their software and have access to the teams that wrote it.

Thanks. I shall enlist their help.

I reinstalled Windows 10 at the advice of Microsoft help. That fixed some problems, but new ones appeared.I had to do some cleanup on some of my VS 2019 files. It appears that I can now work on my website files with my PC. At first attempt to use the website locally, JavaScript would not fire using the original file on the PC. I copies the working project from my laptop to my PC. It works as it should. I still can't use sql server management studio to access a database on a remote server. It just goes to nowhere when loading records from tables. I'll live with that.
Thanks again for your help

You're welcome!

MS Support can be damn good when they want to.

Well, I got a Windows update yesterday and now sql server management studio is working!

That's got to be a coincidence - MS don't fix bugs! :laugh:
