What makes windows 11 system files get corrupted ?
From few days my windows 11 refused to load but I was able to use commands like DISM, chkdsk, sfc /scannow and it return to load again. But I wonder what is the most common cause to make windows 11 files get corrupted like this ?.
Causes like Improper Shutdowns or Power Loss , Failing or Faulty Storage Drive, Malware or Virus Infections are not responsible for me so what is the most probably cause for this ?

Certain applications, especially system utilities or low-level programs, can interfere with system files and cause corruption.
- Faulty RAM leading to write‐errors
- Third-party file‐system filter drivers (AV/backup)
- Incomplete or failed Windows Update commits
- File‐system virtualization/encryption hooks (e.g. BitLocker)
- BIOS/firmware bugs or overclock instability
