  2. DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth Error: 0x800f081f

    Hi,

    Was trying to update windows 10 manually and it failed with this error : `Windows 10 Insider Preview 18950.1000 (rs_prerelease) - Error 0x800f0900`

    . I checked sfc /scannow and it tells me it found some corruption etc but it could not repair. I tried to run DISM commands to repair those failureds

    dism /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth

    dism /online /cleanup-image /checkhealth

    dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

    DISM stuck at 94,4% then it just fails with the following error:

    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.

    Tried to use an alternative source by creating an image with windows media creation tool

    dism /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth

    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:WIM:E:\sources\install.wim:10 /LimitAccess

    Same Results: Error: 0x800f081f
