STEP 3. Grab some food for the next 15 minutes -

Wait until the cmd tells you that the procedure is over.
It will tell you if you still have some problems or if everything is fixed.
You can find scan logs to check what happened the last minutes on your lovely computer. (cmd will tell you where you can find it. If the acces is denied just copy the .txt to your desktop and you will able to read it.)

STEP 4. Checking logs if needed (facultative) -

Press CTRL+F to search for dnsapi.dll on the logs and you will be able to check updates.
