[SOLVED] Error 0x80073712 while trying to update W10 with 22H2

[vugie]

Hi
I'm on Win 10 Pro 21H1. I'm trying to install 22H2 update, but it results with error 0x80073712.
I've already tried few fixes found in the internet, like running chkdsk or deleting SoftwareDistribution and catroot2 folders. Nothing has changed.
Previously I also had problems installing .NET Framework 3.5, which resulted with error 0x800700C1.

Here is the result of sfc and Dism:

PS C:\Windows\system32> sfc /scannow

Windows Resource Protection could not start the repair service.
PS C:\Windows\system32> Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
Version: 10.0.19041.844

Image Version: 10.0.19043.928

[==========================100.0%==========================]
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 https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=243077.

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

CBS, and dism and ComponentsScanner logs are attached.

I'll appreciate any help!

I'm attaching also components and CBS hives.

Hi,

Sorry for the delay, I have closed the other thread...

Step 1. Download

SFCFix and save it to your desktop.

Warning: This fix was written specifically for this system. Do not run this fix on another system.

• Save any work you have open, and close all programs.
• Download the attachment SFCFix.zip and save it to your desktop.
• Drag the SFCFix.zip file over the SFCFix.exe executable and release it.

• SFCFix will launch, let it complete.
• Once done, a file will appear on your desktop, called SFCFix.txt.
• Post the logfile (SFCFix.txt) as attachment in your next reply.

Step 2. Run the following DISM command and post the result. If it fails attach a new copy of the CBS log.

DISM /online /cleanup-image /RestoreHealth

This time SFCFix reported some fails and DISM worked veeery long before even showing its progress bar. But it finished with success. And all the updates went good. So many, many thanks! I donated.

Could you disclose a bit what actually the scripts you prepared are doing to the system and how you prepare them?

Hi,

You're welcome and thanks for the donation. Glad all the updates installed without any issues. The errors reported by SFCFix can be ignored..
Some components of the Servicing Stack were missing, which we have restored with SFCFix.
