        Well, the command was designed to fix the most common Windows problems like corrupted files and weird settings. So of course help lines are going to ask to run it. It was made to automatically fix problems.

        It also works amazingly well.

          to answer your question, Linux systems tend to be more stable than windows when it comes to just leaving it running and different distros have different tools for repairing files. Funny enough I actually fixed a windows installation using a equally user friendly tool that shipped with Ubuntu
