Expert: Windows X Pro Image Corruption: Even after reinstall from ISO
Desperate assistance needed please: I have upgraded directly from a Windows Ten Pro ISO downloaded directly from Microsoft, but both sfc /scannow and Dism "restore heallth" run from an elevated prompt report that they cannot repair the image errors. Windows help desk simply says to "reset" from Update and Security from the Settings menu, but this machine was running CLEAN Windows 8.1 (sfc /scannow or DISM commmands reported no errors) and resetting as they suggest will (at a minimum) mean that all of my installed software will be entirely lost.
I am desperate for a person proficient in restoring the integrity of a Windows Ten Pro image (have tried BOTH reinstalling directly from the downloaded ISO (multiple times and from re-downloaded ISO's and doing in-place upgrades). Both methods report the same errors upon reinstallation or in-place upgrade methods.
The running image is corrupt, corrupt, corrupt. Please...please tell me the command(s) to restore it to health, as was the case with the previous clean 8.1 that was running before the upgrade???
Both Sfc /scannow and DISM restorehealth report that the image is repairable, but it is beyond my understanding how to do do. Please...please help??
I beg you..
Thank you kindly and sincerely,
