    Failed to Load the provider: .... PEProvider.dll


    Getting the above warning in dism.log (later causing error) with almost anything I try to do with DISM.

    Let be straight - I'm in such a state trying to fix this problem I didn't even notice this was a Windows 10 forum!. My problem is with Windows 7 64bit, so you may want to kick me out or take pity :).

    Problem started with with the visual studio 2015 reditributable package, vc_redist.x64.exe. It fails during the Windows7_MSU_x64 phase with missing api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll . I tried to fix it with KB2999226 and it also fails, with 0x80240017. MS publish a fix for the problem, by extracting the KB and using DISM to patch it. :

    wusa.exe C:\packages\Patch\x64\Windows6.1-KB2999226-x64.msu /extract:extractedFix

    DISM.exe /Online /Add-Package /PackagePath:extractedFix\Windows6.1-KB2999226-x64.cab

    C:\packages\vcRedistD14\vc_redist.x64.exe /repair


    DISM fails with :

    2016-12-06 15:10:40, Warning DISM DISM Provider Store: PID=2804 Failed to Load the provider: C:\Users\Rick\AppData\Local\Temp\927F8070-C52A-441B-87E1-41346CA25327\PEProvider.dll. - CDISMProviderStore::Internal_GetProvider(hr:0x8007007e)

    which later leads to 4 errors and failure. So I put the WIndows DVD in I: and :

    C:\Users\Rick>Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:wim:I:\sources\install.wim:1 /limitaccess

    Same problem in dis.log with PEProvider.dll. In fact I've tried CheckHealth and RestoreHealth and they both fail because of PEProvider.dll. The dism directory holds many DLLs but not that one, neith is it in the system folders.

    Looking back through dism logs, it seems to have been a problem for a while

    How can I fix this PEProvider.dll problem and get the vc 2015 redistributable installed please?.

    I'm also getting a similar problem with just about any use of DISM, even a simple wim mount :

    F:\Slip>dism /mount-wim /wimfile:F:\slip\Extract\sources\install.wim /index:3 /mountdir:F:\slip\dismmount

    Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
    Version: 6.1.7600.16385

    Error: 0xc1420115

    The user attempted to mount to a directory that does not exist. This is not supported.

    The DISM log file can be found at C:\Windows\Logs\DISM\dism.log

    F:\Slip>

    Log extracts :

    You'd probably be better off posting in the 7 forum http://www.sevenforums.com/

    Not kicking you out, but as you've said this is the 10 forum. You'll probably get a more timely assist better related to Win7 in that forum.

    Good luck :)
