Consequently i tried:
- Dism /Online /Cleanup-image /Startcomponentcleanup,
- Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /AnalyzeComponentStore,
- sfc /scannow,
- flushing the software distribution folder,
- running clean boot,
- uninstalling and reinstalling the already installed windows updates,
- checking CBS.log for "ERROR_SXS_ASSEMBLY_MISSING," and not finding the any such lines in the log,
- Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth,
- Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth,
- creating an ISO with a new windows installation and using it's install.esd as a /SOURCE for DISM commands.
- sfc /scannow returns no identified integrity violations.
- BOTH(!) Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth AND Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth return ERROR:3 "cannot find the path specified"
- SFCFix returned a catastrophic failure error and have not finished the checkup at all.
