The logs you provided indicated that there was some corruption that could not be fixed:

I have prepared a file to fix these and the instructions for completing the fix are shown below:

Warning: this fix is specific to the user in this thread. No one else should follow these instructions as it may cause more harm than good. If you are after assistance, please start a thread of your own.


  1. Download SFCFix.exe (by niemiro) and save this to your Desktop.
  2. Download the file below, SFCFix.zip, and save this to your Desktop. Ensure that this file is named SFCFix.zip - do not rename it.
  3. Save any open documents and close all open windows.
  4. On your Desktop, you should see two files: SFCFix.exe and SFCFix.zip.
  5. Drag the file SFCFix.zip onto the file SFCFix.exe and release it.
  6. SFCFix will now process the script.
  7. Upon completion, a file should be created on your Desktop: SFCFix.txt.
  8. Attach this file into your next post for me to check please.

Please then rerun the DISM scan as you did before and see if it completes.

SFCFix applied, completed.
I re-ran DISM, completed successfully this time. But updates continue to fail with Error 0x80073701

Attaching sfcfix, dism & cbs logs again.

It would appear that an earlier .NET update needs to be re-installed:
