I ran sfc /scannow from Command Prompt with administrator privileges, but the system could not repair itself, even after rebooting. I tried to repair the Windows Store using the Windows 10 install image using†

Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /source:wim:E:\sources\install.wim:1 /limitaccess

but that fails with error message "Error 1726 The remote procedure call failed." Running these commands in safe mode makes no difference. Please help.

Here is a screenshot of the above process and error https://i.stack.imgur.com/mrGKr.png , the dism.log file, the CBS.log file, and a list of system services which I have disabled (as compared to default).

  • Why exactly do you believe you need to run these commands? – Ramhound Jul 21 '16 at 21:13
  • Where did the install.wim come from exactly? I have a very vague memory that using `install.wim:1` does something very specific and where a different value then `1 ` does something else. Which is the reason I ask these questions – Ramhound Jul 21 '16 at 21:21
  • I assume, the RPC services on this virtual machine, are set to be available? The following is contained within, Winerror.h, **`#define RPC_S_CALL_FAILED 1726L`**. What likely is happening is there is a lock, on a file, that is blocking the scan from happening. You can determine what that file is with a tool like Process Explorer. The cbs.log will contain, `Unable to move file to pendingDeletes. Filename ......", if that is the case. – Ramhound Jul 21 '16 at 21:26
  • @Ramhound, A1: I can't get the .NET 3.5 Framework to install no matter what I do (which I'll save for a separate thread) and attempted `sfc /scannow` to attempt to diagnose the issue. – Brandon Lebedev Jul 22 '16 at 15:07
  • @Ramhound, A2: I'm using an ISO of Windows 10 Pro (Win10_1511_2_English_x64.iso), which I downloaded from Microsoft.com a few weeks ago. I'm not sure about the `install.wim:1`. I just copied from the second referenced SuperUser answer. – Brandon Lebedev Jul 22 '16 at 15:10
  • What about CBS.log does it indicate a file lock condition? – Ramhound Jul 22 '16 at 15:16
  • @Ramhound, A3i: Remote Procedure Call (RPC) services is set to Automatic and is running. Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Locater service is set to Manual. – Brandon Lebedev Jul 22 '16 at 15:20
  • @Ramhound, A3ii: I don't see anything indicating a locked file in the CBS.log file, but uploaded it so you can check. – Brandon Lebedev Jul 22 '16 at 18:22
  • Does anything different happen if you use `Dism /online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup`? – Ben N Jul 22 '16 at 18:34
  • @Ben N: `Dism /online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup` works successfully, but both prior problems still persist. – Brandon Lebedev Jul 24 '16 at 04:32
