When you first edit a closed question it will automatically be submitted to the review queues. Sufficiently high-rep users have the opportunity to view the new version and vote to re-open it or leave it closed.

Editing is the only approved method of fixing a question, and you should not resubmit.

If you repost it will be marked as a duplicate of the original. Deleting the original and re-posting is also discouraged, and when noticed a moderator will un-delete the original so that the new instance can be marked as a duplicate.

  • $\begingroup$ Good answer but I'd state it more directly as well. I think it behooves us to be very clear that people should not resubmit closed questions, as new users typically won't know this. $\endgroup$
