Hello, I have Windows Server 2019 Datacenter 1809 (10.0.17763.7314). An FTP server is deployed on it. All updates available until 05/23/2025 are installed.The problem is that the Hyper-V role is not added. On the last window, the installation wizard warns that the target server is missing components and the installation ends with error 0x800f081f.

What was done:
1) The sfc and DISM commands were executed. Each says that everything was completed successfully, but there is no result.
2) Specifying the WIM source in the Add Role Wizard. The result is an error.
3) The WIM source from the WS2019 image was forcibly specified for DISM. It also gives an error and says that the components were not found.

Judging by an independent study of the logs, the system is trying to search for some outdated packages for installing Hyper-V. And apparently they are not in the system, since it has been updated.I ask for help, is it possible to restore something?
