Hello everyone.
I just finished a new build and sometimes not often the desktop freezes usually when I use uTorrent now I checked the files on the PC using sfc scannow and I saw that there were some problem with the files, the scanner did fix the files but isn't it weird that it found problems with the files in a brand new install of Windows. ?
Build
Rayzen 5 5600x
16 gb ram 3600
Rx5600xt
Asus tuf gaming b550m plus wifi

So do you think the sfc fixed the broblem and I won't experience freezing again also could uTorrent be the problem?
Thank you all.

Thank you for the quick response
So do you think the problem were caused by the problem with the files in Windows and did sfc fixed them?
Could be. But because your PC is new I am assuming since it has 5600x what you should do regardless is get a flash drive flash windows 10 from Microsoft's official site and get a clean install. It'll give you peace of mind. At least this is what I do. Because OEM's or any third party windows install can't be trusted. You might be good to go now but may face issues in future. Plus installing windows is a 20 minutes process only
Torrent client shouldn't be the problem. But uTorrent has a past of being sketchy although very unlikely. Windows even blocks uTorrent when trying to install. My favorite go to client is qbittorrent. Also the freezes could be due to uTorrent using 100% of disk usage when writing. And don't forget to set weekly defragment/trim schedule for both SSD and HDD
