Is WinRE.wim the same file as Install.wim

Tried to run DISM offline under Windows 10 Recovery Enviroment. X:\windows\system32\
My C drive change to D drive

DISM /image:D:\ /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

but received error 0x800f081f (sources files could not be found).

Is the WinRE.wim is the same file as Install.wim. Because I found the WinRe.wim file located in the hidden folder of c:\recovery\WindowsRE.

or I still need to to extract the Install.wim from the install.esd file.

TQ.

Welcome to TenForums safi

No, WinRE.wim is quite different. It is the Windows Recovery Environment.

However, you do not need to extract a .wim from the install.esd, you can use it directly. See Option one, Step 7 in this tutorial. This /source:esd option will work for both online and offline repairs.

Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:esd:Full Path to install.esd file:<Index Number>

OK..After months trying I surrender

I have 2 units of same spec old HP PC. Want to update its Win 10 version 1703 (OS Build 15063.1206) to the latest.
Ran the windows update but 1 unit got stuck and roll back to its previous version of windows.
This result to BSOD "CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED"..

The PC Windows dead, goes OFFLINE boot to WINRE command prompt

I had tried ;

Code:

Memtest
chkdsk d: /f
sfc /SCANNOW /OFFBOOTDIR=D:\ /OFFWINDIR=D:\windows
Dism /Image:D:\ /ScratchDir:D:\Scratch /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
Dism /Image:D:\ /ScratchDir:D:\Scratch /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
DISM /Image:D:\ /ScratchDir:D:\Scratch /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup
DISM /Image:D:\ /ScratchDir:D:\Scratch /Cleanup-Image /AnalyzeComponentStore
DISM /Image:D:\ /ScratchDir:D:\Scratch /Cleanup-Image /RevertPendingActions
DISM /Image:D:\ /ScratchDir:D:\Scratch /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
DISM /Image:D:\ /ScratchDir:D:\Scratch /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:WIM:D:\install.wim:1 /LimitAccess
Dism /Image:D:\ /ScratchDir:D:\Scratch /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:D:\mount\windows /limitaccess

All above 100% AOK executed but still cannot recover my the BSOD.
Maybe hardware problem so I exchanged the harddisk from good PC to bad and bad to good.
Result still the same, Good one working and Bad one still BSOD on the good PC.

Using the Vmware I had installed Win 10 version 1703 (OS Build 15063.0) and updated its to OS Build 15063.1206. Do comparison.. In my little little understanding there something missing in the WINSXS folder in regard to the ntoskrnl.exe and ntdll.dll files folders.. after the roll back process.

By using Dism++ program, I able to uninstall and reinstall the windows update and restore the missing files folders of ntoskrnl.exe and ntdll.dll files in the WINSXS but nothing change still same BSOD.

Any ideas please before I fresh install.

Problem : ntoskrnl.exe (ntdll.dll+svchost.exe)
