    "The package repository is corrupted"


    Hi, I opened my pc this morning and it was working perfectly fine. Later on after doing some work I went to download a word document from an email and got this message: "The package repository is corrupted". I proceeded to attempt to open other Microsoft Office App files Excel, PowerPoint etc all resulting in the same message. Also I always keep the Settings App pinned to my taskbar however the cog thumbnail was no longer appearing as a window and whenever I opened the settings app from start it would periodically crash.


    I researched a bit on some Microsoft discussions and found if I placed these commands in the command prompt, I might find a solution:


    sfc /scannow

    DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth
    DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth
    DISM.exe /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup


    I shall also include what the command prompt script:



    C:\Windows\system32>sfc /scannow



    Beginning system scan. This process will take some time.



    Beginning verification phase of system scan.

    Verification 100% complete.



    Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.



    C:\Windows\system32>DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth



    Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool

    Version: 10.0.19041.572



    Image Version: 10.0.19041.685



    [== 4.9% ]

    Error: 14098



    The component store has been corrupted.



    The DISM log file can be found at C:\Windows\Logs\DISM\dism.log



    C:\Windows\system32>DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth



    Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool

    Version: 10.0.19041.572



    Image Version: 10.0.19041.685



    [== 3.8% ]

    Error: 14098



    The component store has been corrupted.



    The DISM log file can be found at C:\Windows\Logs\DISM\dism.log



    C:\Windows\system32>DISM.exe /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup



    Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool

    Version: 10.0.19041.572



    Image Version: 10.0.19041.685





    Error: 87



    An error occurred while processing the command.

    Ensure that the command-line arguments are valid. For more information, review the log file.



    The DISM log file can be found at C:\Windows\Logs\DISM\dism.log


    Something else I did was to go to Settings -> Apps and features -> Microsoft 365 Apps -> Modify -> Online repair. This did not resolve the issue.



    I have also checked for updates and restarted my pc multiple times and that did not work either.



    Please help, I am a student and I really need to get my work done.

    :)
