    Ok kool, I did mind the other method, and spent around 3 days reinstalling all my registered apps. Not fun!! I have a lot of programs I paid for, and finding all their keys and reg #'s plus on 1 or 2 I had to either call them on phone or send emails to get them re-registered. groan....

    Tray Icons and Windows Start button stops working.

    When I tried this:


    This :
    sfc /scannow

    Got this :

    Code: Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.10240] (c) 2015 Microsoft Corporation. Alle rechten voorbehouden. C:\WINDOWS\system32>sfc /scannow Beginning system scan. This process will take some time.

    And doing this: Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

    Got me this:

    As seen here sfc /scannow found files and was able to fix them. DISM command i do not know what the first error code means as this code can come from more then running DISM from research. Possible as it shows it was unable to either establish connection as DISM works online or caused by something it can not fix . Now the second time you ran DISM it said you canceled the command, canceled by user.

    Many times you need to run both of these commands and reboot after each, do this a few times to try to fix the corrupted files. May of had a network issue running DISM. Some of details not being in English did not help me to understand it all. Also read could be corrupt registry or system configuration.

    So retry running both commands and reboot after each, try least 3 reboots. If no success may need go to the alternative of inplace upgrade or refresh Windows 10. Make sure your network is working properly.
