I'm curious as to how you somehow get going again while maintaining
the presense of your files. The usual methadology is format and
reinstall.

No, there are three methods known to fix windows problems and you always try them in this order: (1) reboot, (2), reinstall windows, (3) reformat.

Fedora&RedHat:

When it crashes, you insert the software CD, but
instead of
the situation above, most of your work is lost !

As long as yum is still working, it can re-install anything it uninstalled. If yum quits working, you might need to boot the install CD in rescue mode to fix things.
