So archive it and upload it as soon as you can.

Let's see if this will finally make DISM complete the scan successfully. DISM - Fixing Component Store Corruption Follow the instructions below to run a DISM operation on your system. On Windows 8, drag your cursor in the bottom-left corner, and right-click on the metro menu preview, then select Command Prompt (Admin); On Windows 8.1, right click on the Windows logo in the bottom-left corner and select Command Prompt (Admin); Enter the command below and press on Enter; Code: DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth Let the scan run until the end (100%). Depending on your system, it can take some time; Copy the C:\Windows\Logs\DISM folder and C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log file on your Desktop, then right-click on it, go to Send to... and select Compressed .zip archive; Upload the file on Dropbox, Google Drive or OneDrive and post the download URL for it here; Note: Please note that the CBS.log is volatile, which means that if you don't upload it after the DISM scan is completed, it won't contains the information from the scan anymore.

There's an error in the way DISM interprets the command. It's running successfully and working as intended. Windows Update and System File wise, you are all set. You can always do an in-place upgrade (Repair Install) and see if that solves the issue.
