Explanation

NOTE: The given correct answer of A (System File Checker / sfc /scannow) does not align well with the question's stated goals. SFC scans and repairs Windows operating system files, not user documents. It does not protect against accidental deletion of documents, ransomware, or drive failure. The clearly correct answer for protecting 'important documents' from accidental deletion, system malfunctions, and malicious activity (such as ransomware) is B - configuring recurring backups. Backups address all three threats. This appears to be an error in the source exam material; if tested, B (recurring backups) is the defensible answer.
