It is indeed. I tried on an external drive initially but it did not work. Then moved it to my C: root and ran the command again. The install.wim is in here. Note that the install.wim is from several minor versions ahead of mine. Part of the reason I'm recreating this is because I was having problems installing the latest update.
It looks like it's also wanting the Windows RE image. Doing a repair install of Windows 10 should restore this to be able to enable it.

Another problem is my repair install attempts are failing!
I actually was looking to get all the advanced recovery options re-enabled, which I mistook this article for. So it is the recovery environment which I need instead. Let me try to follow those steps. Thanks!

So unfortunantly this article just mentions to run the enable command and when I do I get this error. Is there any way to manually recreate the RE image without doing a repair install?
REAGENTC.EXE: The Windows RE image was not found.

You could copy winre.wim and reagent.xml out of your install.wim and into your windows\system32\recovery folder
7-zip is handy for this kind of thing
You can get it from the installation media, presumably you have that, or you can download the installation media easily enough.
