[SOLVED] Windows Server 2019 Windows update problem - The component store has been corrupt

[Swepah]

Hi,
I got problem to apply cumulative updates since june.
The event log shows this when trying to install the August rollup "Windows update "Security Update for Windows (KB5041578)" could not be installed because of error 2147956498 "The component store has been corrupted"
I have tried to to execute "DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth" with the resultError: 0x800f081f "The source files could not be found"
In the CBS.log there is a problem with all files in the folder "amd64_windows-defender-management-powershell_31bf3856ad364e35_10.0.17763.5830_none_311d57717347d139".
I have tried to use the same command and used different source like different setup DVD builds and also tried to use another server with the same OS build as source but with no success.
I have tried copy the files from a healthy system with the same build and patch level to "C:\Windows\WinSxS\amd64_windows-defender-management-powershell_31bf3856ad364e35_10.0.17763.5830_none_311d57717347d13" but still the same problem
I have restored the original files before I executed the latest SFC scan, DISM and Component Scanner.

Thanks

Hi,

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

The DISM was executed with success.
I will try to apply the August rollup this evening.
