Windows 10: How to use DISM in WINDOW PE environment?

i am trying to repair my windows(i cannot boot to windows 10 and i tried automatic repair three times already). Can't even boot to safe mode. Keeps getting pci.sys corruption error at boot up.

So i am forced to use a usb to boot to a Pre-installed window environment.

Upon using Dism /online /cleanup-image /checkhealth

i get an error:

error 50 DISM does not support servicing windows PE with the /online option.

Please help.

Sidenote: I already tried sfc /scannow and got an error: windows resource system found corruptions but is unable to fix. So that why i am using DISM.

:)

 

I got this error code running sfc /scannow in WIndows 10 64 bit. What does it mean?

DISM can be used to service the following operating systems:

• Windows 8.1
• Windows 8
• Windows Server 2012 R2
• Windows Server® 2012
• Windows® 7
• Windows Server 2008 R2
• Windows Server 2008 SP2
• Windows PE 5.0
• Windows PE 4.0
• Windows Preinstallation Environment (Windows PE) 3.0
• It doesn't mention Windows 10 -

DISM - Deployment Image Servicing and Management (DISM.exe) is a command-line tool that can be used to service a Windows® image or to prepare a Windows Preinstallation Environment (Windows PE) image. DISM can be used to service a Windows image (.wim) or
a virtual hard disk (.vhd or .vhdx).

DISM replaces the ImageX tool which was deprecated in Windows 8. DISM also replaces Package Manager (Pkgmgr.exe), PEimg, and Intlcfg that were included in previous deployment toolkits. DISM also adds new functionality to improve the experience for offline
servicing.

Sorry, but this is way over my head. lol!

 

Problem with errorcode 0xc000021a

Still nothing. It says "Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool. Version 10.0.15063.0.

Error:50

DISM does not support servicing Windows PE with the /Online option.

The DISM file can be found at X: \windows\logs\DISM\dism.log"

 

If you are booting PE then you want to repair the offine image - online refers to the Windows image currently running which if you booted PE would be PE.

Something line Dism /Image:C:\offline /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:c:\test\mount\windows

See Repair a Windows Image

Your PE environment needs to have DISM installed also if it doesn't already. You'd need to mount PE, add these and then dismount again. Code: Add-Package WinPE-WMI # subset of WMI providers that enable minimal system diagnostics Add-Package WinPE-NetFX # subset of the .NET Framework 4.5 Add-Package WinPE-Scripting # multiple-language scripting environment Add-Package WinPE-PowerShell # PowerShell–based diagnostics (requires all previous) Add-Package WinPE-DismCmdlets # Dism PowerShell module[/quote] WinPE: Add packages (Optional Components Reference)

Most likely these will be added anyway but it depends where you got your PE image from.

 

i am using the windows 10 boot from:

Windows 10 Recovery Tools - Bootable Rescue Disk - Windows 10 Forums

Apology, but I am new at this. Can someone walk me through this?

I am confused at the mounting. Also the code given, do i type it in cmd.exe?

 

From Recovery Environment the DISM commands are installed I believe so nothing to worry about there. And, yes, you will need to enter commands from cmd.exe.

From Recovery Environment you will get a command prompt like X:\>Sources (see this tutorial - Open Command Prompt at Boot in Windows 10 Windows 10 General Tips Tutorials )

Then you need to identify which drive letter is assigned to the windows installation on your PC. Most likely it will be C but it may not.

If you haven't run SFC at boot as described in the tutorial above then run it - something like:
sfc /scannow /offbootdir=C:\ /offwindir=C:\windows

Then (assuming it is C - if not change C to D or whatever) enter:
DISM /image:C:\ /cleanup-image /revertpendingactions

The "/revertpendingactions" switch is optional but according to this blog helps with non-booting situations.
