Windows 10: Sfc /scannow..... found corrupt files but unable to fix some of them.

Win 10 version 1709 build 16299.402.

I did a system file check and it said ........ "found corrupt files but unable to fix some of them".

I am not looking for a solution, such as dism ..... restorehealth.
I am just wondering if it is my computer or someone else is having the same issue after installing the current Update KB4093105.

sfc /scannow found corrupt files but unable to fix it

If you get the error message "cannot find source files"you need to have an ISO file mounted and need to specify where it is located with the below command

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /source:WIM:X:\Sources\Install.wim:1 /LimitAccess Where "X" is the drive letter where the ISO is located. Simply change the "X" to the correct drive letter

If you do not have an ISO you can make one. The instructions are

I did what you said Zigzag but its still saying

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

 

When there are scannow integrity violations or if scannow cannot run there is information in the CBS log.
The CBS log often has error messages and codes and may need to be decoded.
Problems with updates may also be in the event logs or in the Windows error reporting logs.
As you commented in the OP you can often fix with restorehealth.
After fixing with restorehealth run the scannow again to see if the operating system has been fixed and remains fixed.
If it has not been fixed or does not remain fixed then you can perform an in place upgrade repair with a Windows 10 iso or restore with an image backup.
