OK,

I will buy a Win 10 license X64 home, I am not trying to cheat, now how do I restore my original full disk image onto the new system with the old system image, or I can’t? The old system image of course includes the OEM operating system, I can’t after I buy a license put that onto my new computer?

Thanks BB,

I appreciate your quick response much appreciated, wonder why they included it on my non RAID system or it’s a Windows thingy?

Hi,

Since I’m the OP, I had a Win 7 X64 system upgraded to Win 10 Pro X64 July 29th for free. Due to another problem, I saw SFC /SCANNOW failed on my Win 10 installation. That is how I got into the whole DISM fix scenario in this post. Yes I have a Win 10 ISO disc but I didn’t do an inplace repair at the time!

UPDATE: I installed the Nov Windows 10 BIG update to V1511, SFC /SCANNOW runs clean with no errors Then I was also able to create a Win 10 recovery drive windowssecrets.com/top-story/learn-to-use-the-windows-10-recovery-drive/ So I’m Good to Go now!!

OK I created a Rufus drive as per jwoods post, I do not have that KB installed, I get the same failure, something else is in play here

Yes Install.WIM now and NO to RUFUS

Hi all,

OK checked my WINVER and it’s build 10240 screenshot
I upgraded my Windows 7 X64 Ultimate SP1 on July 29 2015(Free upgrade) to Win 10 Pro X64
Next I assumed my USB drive was created wrong, so I followed jwoods post and created the Win10 X64 USB drive with the method posted. I ran the DISM command against the NEW USB drive and it failed exactly the same way. I don’t know where to go from here…

Same failure using the INSTALL.ESD command screenshot

jwoods,

No I don’t here is a partial screenshot no image.wim in sources

jwoods Snagit wasn’t able to get a full screenshot of sources file, sorry!

Here is my USB drive

djohnson,

I think you are really trying to help but you said I left off the last S in my post number #1, I did NOT and I got the same error as I posted in my post #1, here is the screenshot again from retrying your command, same failure I posted in post #1 above screenshot

djohnson,

I upgraded to win 10 X64 from Win 7X64 ultimate on July 29th when it was available, I ASSume it was the latest build, I had no beta’s installed before then. The Win 10X64 PRO USB and WIN PRO X64 DVD were downloaded from Microsoft way after the release. But wouldn’t this command went out to the servers and got the latest version same as my July 29th upgrade when I Tried to repair with this DISM command:
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth ???

OK djohnson,

Here is a screenshot of my USB stick drive in File explorer, I see files and folders so in screenshot

I ran the DISM command against that USB drive noted in post #1, am I doing something wrong?
You say now I don’t really need to mount it as you said before?

OK everyone

So how do I mount (in Win 10) either a USB Stick drive or a DVD, both have Win 10 PRO.iso on them so I can use the DISM command as suggested?

jwoods,

I ran your command and got screenshot
