    I have a user who has a Lenovo notebook recently upgraded to Windows 10 Pro.
    He complained that it is very sluggish and Internet Explorer is extremely sluggish since the upgrade to Windows 10. I ran SFC /scannow with this result:
    Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some
    of them. Details are included in the CBS.Log windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For
    example C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. Note that logging is currently not
    supported in offline servicing scenarios.
    I ran Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:esd:E:\x64\Sources\Install.esd:1 /limitaccess pointed to a USB drive with a fresh download of Windows 10 on it. I get this result:
    Error: 0x800f081f
    The source files could not be found.
    Use the "Source" option to specify the location of the files that are required to restore the feature. For more information on specifying a source location, see Configure a Windows Repair Source.
    The DISM log file can be found at C:\WINDOWS\Logs\DISM\dism.log
    Here are the errors from the log file:

    Dism error: 0x800f081f

    I used Dism "C:\>dism /image:c:\ /cleanup-image /restorehealth /scratchdir:c:\scratch" to repair a Win10 system in a PE environment, and received an error 0x800f081f, stating that "[t]he source files could not be found".

    Any suggestions on what to do next?

    Thanks in advance!
