sfc /scannow: windows resource protection could not perform the requested operation

The command prompt's sfc scanning stopped at 42% and showed the following error:
windows resource protection could not perform the requested operation.

I've researched solutions through search engines, and I've tried everything including safe mode sfc scanning and chkdsk repairs, ALL of them didn't work. Can anyone spare a min and help me find a solution?

 

Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation

On my laptop, even in safe mode, sfc /scannow verifies 100%, but "Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation". Any easy advice please?

 

Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation


axe,

Before I retire for the morning and before I forget:
- a few sites suggest running SFC in Safe mode to resolve the Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation issue.

It doesn't seem as though that would make a difference, but it is easy enough to try.

skeetz,

The install.wim file should be in the sources folder on the thumbdrive you created.




Rather than try and find it, please download a fresh ISO from Techbench

Scroll down to the ISO download section






- make sure that you select the drop down picks that match your system
Your system specs are sparse I can't tell

Edition: Windows 10 (probably)
Language: English (possibly)
[ 32-bit Download ]
??? --- or --- ???
[ 64-bit Download ]

Press the correct bit-depth button to start the download

When it finishes downloading, just mount it (double click)

look in the sources folder to make sure you see an install.wim file

If you don't see it, select all in the File Explorer window,
Select Copy Path on the Home menu (ribbon)
Then past the copy into a post.

No rush skeetz ... axe might want to continue with things in already motion ... I'll defer to him
I'm hitting the hay - it's 05:30 here

Thanks all.
