    DISM ERROR - it can't find the files.....


    Hi all - I just upgraded from Win 8.1. I'm having some problems and wanted to run the command:
    Code: C:\WINDOWS\system32>Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth[/quote] However the repair doesn't work, due to getting the error:

    I can't find any clear information on how to set this source parameters. I have a Windows 10 installation USB plugged in. It's on N: and the dir command gives the following files:

    Code: 09/07/2016 19:40 128 autorun.inf 09/07/2016 19:40 <DIR> boot 09/07/2016 19:40 400,228 bootmgr 09/07/2016 19:40 1,147,736 bootmgr.efi 09/07/2016 19:40 <DIR> efi 09/07/2016 19:40 80,576 setup.exe 09/07/2016 19:58 <DIR> sources 09/07/2016 19:58 <DIR> support[/quote] Is anyone able to help me with advise on what parameters to use for the Source for the repair files?

    :)

  2. Start Menu frozen for some domain user profiles on some computers

    I have also run SFC and DISM, which reports a corrupt file but that it can't find the source file. These machines were updated to Win10 by a vendor, but I understood that DISM would search Windows Update if it didn't find the source files. Doesn't seem
    to be happening, though.

  3. Creating a new folder and right-clicking hangs Explorer for 5-10 seconds

    Subject says it all. This has started recently, and not because of an update, because this happened a week or so after my last update. I've tried using "sfc /scannow" and DISM, but to no avail. sfc says that there are errors but it can't repair them. I
    tried running it after booting in safe mode as well but still the same error. DISM says that it can't find the source files, so I'm pretty much out of ideas. Yes, I've tried rebooting too. What is going on???

    Found it with the right Google input:

    Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:wim:N:\sources\install.wim:1 /limitaccess

    Thank you so much for the response Dencal! Just saw it. Really appreciate the fast response.
    Windows 10 is just hacking by, so I'll be stopping by soon again, I think! *Smile
