    What else am I supposed to do? The DISM scans says things are repairable but I can't figure out how I am supposed to do that if restorehealth never works. CBS and DISM files: CBS DISM files

    Source to use for DISM on Windows 10


    This is not completely true. The suggestion is to download the Techbench version and use DISM to apply to install.wim directly. However, you can also use the version download from MCT except it will involve an extra step as follows:
    1. Use the latest version of 7-Zip to extract the content of install.esd. For example: to a folder xxx on the desktop
    2. From Admin command prompt:
      Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\xxx\windows /LimitAccess

    See screen shot, the contents of install.wim and install.esd are exactly the same.

    hmm...

    I assumed they were the same all along so I tried simply COPYING the .esd AND the .wim out, and tried to use them but that didn't work either. Now that you mention EXTRACTING it out, that maybe makes more sense.

    I thought the .esd version was encrypted. Does 7-zip take care of that?

    DISM /Source option how to use a USB flash drive as the source

    Hi CPP0702,

    Let's try converting ESD to WIM and try running DISM again. To convert the file format,

    • dism /Export-Image /SourceImageFile:F:\sources\install.esd /SourceIndex:1 /DestinationImageFile:C:\install.wim /Compress:Max /CheckIntegrity
    Once the C:\install.wim file is ready, run:

    • dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth /source:C:\install.wim
    Please upload "C:\WINDOWS\Logs\DISM\dism.log" if the issue persists.
