    sfc /scannow error after 1709 update


    After 1709 update yesterday, I did
    %SystemRoot%\System32\Cmd.exe /c Cleanmgr /sageset:65535 & Cleanmgr /sagerun:65535
    Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup /ResetBase

    Then I did
    sfc /scannow.
    I got the following error.

    Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some
    of them. Details are included in the CBS.Log windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For
    example C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. Note that logging is currently not
    supported in offline servicing scenarios.

    What should I do?

    First make sure you have installed all Windows updates.


    To open an elevated Command Prompt window In Windows 10 type cmd.exe into Start Screen or Start Menu, right-click on Cmd.exe, and open it as an administrator.

    Run below commands from Command Prompt that is open as administrator.

    You would use DISM to fix Windows component store corruption when a sfc /scannow command is unable to repair corrupted or modified system files because the component store (source) is corrupted.

    Code:
    Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth


    SFC should be able to repair the files afterwards. Execute below command to make sure corrupted system files repaired.

    Code:
    Sfc  /Scannow

    This needs an ISO which is impossible to make. I tried MCT which results in an error. I have already posted this in this forum. Further I tried other solution of making edge duplicate as safari. That also failed.

    I recall reading an article recently where exactly this was discussed. Apparently it is a known quirk or oddity experienced by some:
    sfc and dism ..... old issue returns - Windows 10 Forums

    Examine the CBS.LOG file carefully. You can also try running SFC /SCANNOW a couple more times.

    Further report:
    Windows 10 - SFC finds corrupt files and is unable to fix - DISM - Microsoft Community

    It is of no consolation to your case, I am afraid.
    I just want to tell you that I had had this problem on the previous build. But, build 16299.64 has solved the problem for my computer.
    I have posted that in this thread of mine.........
    sfc and dism....restorehealth in 16299.64

    So, apparently the glitch is not "universal".
    I sincerely hope you will solve your issue. Good luck.

    Hi,

    This needs an ISO which is impossible to make.
    If you can download the ISO file that corresponds to whatever version of W10 you are running you should point DISM to it when mounted.
    I.e. exact drive letter and Source folder so DISM can repair your damaged backup image. After that Sfc should run just fine.

    When running DISM without a valid source as a reference it will invariably return errors when it has only a corrupted local system source as a reference.
    A mounted official MS ISO of the correct version and correct command line (or PS) parameters should solve the issue.

    Sometimes the error messages are confusing telling you the issue can't be repaired where in essence the source to repair the issue can't be found etc.

    Cheers,

    Downloading ISO is main problem.
