[SOLVED] The source files could not be downloaded. Error: 0x800f0906

[saa]

Hello there,

After installing Windows updates 2022-08 on a Windows server 2016 host i got this error "The source files could not be downloaded" after running sfc/scannow and Dism restore health.


sfc /scannow -> Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them.
Dism /RestoreHealth -> Error: 0x800f0906, The source files could not be downloaded.


Kindly find the CBS.log, dism.log and CBS.zip attached.


Could you please help fixing this? Thanks a lot in advance.
