Hello, I really need your help!
For context a windows update caused my computer to stop booting properly. I tried SFC, DISM, Windows repair startup, and using carious boot repair tools, nothing worked. The error I get on startup is 0x000000e BSOD and 101_not_initilized.

I am trying to run DISM from APK on a working windows 11 ssd to fix the broken windows 11 drive.

I run this:

"D:\>dism /image:D:\ /cleanup-image /restorehealth /source:D:\install.wim /limitaccess /scratchdir:C:\scratch"

It returns Error 87.
The cleanup-image option is unknown.

The log is below! Please help me thank you so much.

Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
Version: 10.0.25398.1
Image Version: 10.0.22000.1928

Assume disk :D:\ the bad drive, Disk :C: the windows environment (working)

Update: I reverted C:\Windows\WinSxS to an older backup version and it seems to be trying to image now, the progress bar shows nothing but it doesn't crash this time.

I was able to get DISM to run after several tries. But after it got to 100% it says "Error: 0x800f081f"

Error: 0x800f081f

The source files could not be found.
Use the "Source" option to specify the location of the files that are required to restore the feature. For more information on specifying a source location, see Configure a Windows Repair Source.

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