i have tried that - started manually, set to auto start
tried again anyway
sfc still fails
no, sfc /scannow still fails
i just use this as a simple test, rather than trying the entire windows update again
Might try booting the install media and choose Repair your computer
i download the current iso, extracted install.wim
ran DISM pointing to install.wim, still fails
