Windows 10: DISM unable to locate Install.wim file

My computer has corrupt source files which neither Scannow nor Dism commands are able to rectify.
Have mounted the Install,WIm ISO from TechNet and followed your above instructions without success.....see att
Also have tried Topgundcp method again no luck.
This is on an M$ Surface Pro 4....is it perhaps because "C" Drive is Bitlocker Encrypted,?

 

If you have the Tech Bench ISO file downloaded, then right click at it > click Mount > leave it there

Then open the elevated command prompt and copy and paste this................

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

Note : H is the drive where the iso is mounted. Change it if your driver letter is different.

When it is completed, you should get the report that the operation is successful.
Now run the sfc /scannow again. It should be ok this time.

 

As soon as I had posted I realised the error I had made.....being so used to my other computers with multiple drives I assumed wrongly that because this computer only has a single drive the image would be on "C".....but it has created a separate "D" drive.
I live and learn....must switch off now but will try your method later and post the result.

 

Thankyou for the information. I think that is pretty close to what I did in the end. There was that funny business of having to run sfc /scannow more than once though.

Success at last though had to go through the proceedings twice.... see attachments.....thank you for assistance.

 

On restarting found I had a very large update which altered my setup somewhat.
"D" was removed which contained Wim....see attachments.....fortunately rerunning scannow proved clean.

PS....the large update consisted of removal of language pack in WIM iso.

 

When I did this, the disk image was from the Technical Preview build.

 

Tech Bench does not provide Insider Preview ISO.

Did you use this link :

May I suggest that you start a new thread for yourself.
Explain your problem from the beginning so that we know how to help you.
This one is too long and old.

 

It's noted in other threads here (as I've seen the same) that Microsoft simply neglected to update that ISO for build 10586 when it was released to modify the description. Here's how mine looks:



Not to worry, it IS the public release version.

 

Sorry for bumping, but maybe this information will be handy for someone. I ran in the same issue as OP, and as well as OP I was able to repair the image using WIM image from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/softw...load/techbench iso instead of ESD image from Media Creation Tool iso. Image version is 10586 and I tried ESD file from the same Media Creation Tool iso I've installed my Windows from. So, it seems repairing image from ESD is somehow broken.

 

I concur that getting the ISO from TechBench seems to be the way to go. I had no problems using that as the source.

 

Now it appears that the Techbench download link is broken. They must have removed the page.
I am trying to do a DISM repair on Windows 10 version 1511 (build 10.0.10586). Now that Microsoft released the Anniversary update (version 1607), August 2, 2016, downloading the media creation tool results in a newer build 10.0.14393.

I am wondering if anyone can host or share the install.wim file for Windows 10 version 1511 (build 10.0.10586)?
Better yet, where can I find the ISO for Windows 10 version 1511 (build 10.0.10586)?

PS: I used

to determine the build number of the image file.

 

SOLVED: I was able to create my own .WIM file.
Instructions here: Change ESD to WIM - Windows - Spiceworks

I used Win 10 installation media for Windows 10 version 1511 (build 10.0.10586). I had created this for the Windows 10 upgrade before the latest release. Then I converted the .ESD (Windows Electronic Software Download file) to a .WIM (Windows Imaging Format).

Then I ran DISM again using the .WIM, it worked, then SFC again, and it worked.

Thank you!
