Gentlemen,
Having problems using DISM in W-10?
I did
Then I discovered that dism.exe in system32 has 0 [zero] Kb.
This is in two laptops with OEM W-10 ver 10.0.18363.657
Yet, in one that was upgraded to W-10 from W-7, the file was present. Obviously with a file number for W-7.
Cheers.
Update the specs in the "My Computer" section:

Well, if Dism.exe on your machines was 0 kb then I suggest something went wrong on install (maybe bad install media?).
On my system running Windows 10 Pro 1903 Dism.exe is in the following 4 locations :
"C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Dism.exe"
"C:\Windows\WinSxS\wow64_microsoft-windows-d..ervicing-management_31bf3856ad364e35_10.0.18362.1_none_3b5bbd65bf459c21\Dism.exe"
"C:\Windows\System32\Dism.exe"
"C:\Windows\WinSxS\amd64_microsoft-windows-d..ervicing-management_31bf3856ad364e35_10.0.18362.1_none_310713138ae4da26\Dism.exe"
And have the following properties :
This is from a clean install not an upgrade and I'm pretty sure that during an upgrade the Dism.exe app should match the version of Win10 upgraded to.
