System File Check is not successful
John Terdik:
OK I'm going in one huge circle on this.
* When I run WR, step 4 (SFC) it states that it found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them.
* In Admin CMD if I run dism /online /cleanup-image /checkhealth it states that the files are repairable
* I've shared out the C:\windows folder on my desktop and access it on the laptop as the Z drive then I ran Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:z: /LimitAccess (in Admin CMD window) and it fails stating the source files could not be found. Any idea what I did wrong?
* I looked at the DISM.LOG file (it is attached) but it is so huge I have no idea what I should be looking for and if I see something I don't know what to do about it.
* Do you need any additional information?

Sorry - I can't read those sort of logs as my eyes go all to hell :)
I don't have Win 10 to try out these Dism cmds but for that cmd to succeed, you need to mount the volume from the ISO.
Have you considered a repair install which you can do by using the Upgrade now button in https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows/windows-10-upgrade
This won't affect anything you have installed since upgrading to Win 10, unlike a refresh or reset would, but would be advisable to create an external system image first as a fall back.
What did the SFCFix scan report ?

I'm assuming you mean the Win10 install CD as an ISO file. This I have and give it a try.

If I recall correctly this would require that I reinstall my apps. For now this is a no-no for me. I'm fighting too many other issues with my four systems. However this may be the shortest distance between my problems and success. During the Christmas holidays I started a clean install of Win10 on my desktop and I'm still resolving issues on the system and access to the system from my three laptops.

Gee if it will not really effect anything this really sounds like a great option.
Currently I'm bouncing between my laptop (aka W700) and my wife's laptop (AKS Lenovo) both have the same issue in that SFC cannot repair the errors. I did run SFCFix on both and get the same results, see the image.
I'm going to try the ISO mount, if no success then I'll try the upgrade option.
John Terdik:
On my wife's laptop I just ran SFCFix after mounting the Win10 ISO file and it failed, see the image. following is the msg.
The source files could not be found.
Use the "Source" option to specify the location of the files that are required to restore the feature. For more information on specifying a source location, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=243077.
John Terdik:
Forgot to include the SFCFix log, it looks like it ran with success. Now I'm really confused, in the CMD window (previous post) I infer that it failed but in the log file it looks like it was a success. What do you suggest at this time?
