When should I run DISM scans? Also, is this a good order to run them in: DISM scan health, restore health, and then SFC.

How to get damn DISM to work?

"sources" no capitol , and plural


i mounted the ISO, and ran this command here

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:WIM:X:\sources\Install.wim:1 /LimitAccess
"x" = drive letter

How to get damn DISM to work?

you dont need the "esd" command unless your running an esd file type.

i recommend if ytour just scanning to
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth

or DL an ISO , and run the command i linked above.
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /sources:WIM:X:\sources\Install.wim:1 /LimitAccess
"x" = drive letter.

iso can be DL'd from here

be certain to run elevated CMD prompt.

 

System file check (SFC) Scan and Repair System Files & DISM to fix things SFC cannot

but if you run Scan Health and it DOES need fixed, running RestoreHealth just runs scan AGAIN, which means you spend twice as much time.

if, however, you run RestoreHealth instead, it scans, and if everything is okay, it doesn't have to fix anything, and no time is wasted, because if there IS something wrong, you don't have to scan again...
