Hello,
Prior start a new thread, BrianDarb gave me a huge help in solving all SFC /scannow errors

CBS.log as well as CheckSUR.log shows no error

I have tried many times updating to W10 using the window update both standard way or using GWXUX.exe
Always getting the famous 0X80070005 error

After solving all CBS issues I was a little bit optimistic, therefore I make a new attempt 1 hour ago.

I ran first a short program named winupdatefix_1.3.exe
It does not install itself it just run in memory. It purposes is to better prepare updates
Mainly, it disables win update service, clean software distribution folder and more then enable win update again
All suggested actions described in many forum as well as microsoft itself.

This last attempt looked far better as after downloading the process of installation last a lot longer
Finally after around 2 hours the same result error 0x80070005

Trying then MediaCreationTool.exe did nothing (we can see various description of this symptom in this forum)

Both $windows~BT and $windows~WS are correctly created
Knowing that an image of the latest correct configuration is saved on a separate D:\ drive; I try to run the setup.exe from $windows~BT
The pop up told me that boot.wim is missing.

Thank in advance for your assistance
