What exactly is "File Verification" & What does it do?

Will it change any of my templates if I run it?

Thanks

Please note, this process can not differentiate between custom modifications and actual corruption in files. Therefore you should take caution in reverting files this process returns as "corrupt".

But it doesn't "revert files without asking me first right.

I can just run it, and it checks for validity in files?

Precisely. It simply checks the md5sums of the core files with ones stored on this server.
