How to repair Windows image: In ADMIN Cmd Prompt type sfc /scannow press enter on keyboard if this finds errors try In ADMIN Cmd Prompt Type Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth Press enter on keyboard, wait for it to finish, If this does not fix problem, then With ISO Media in CD/DVD tray: (The same media you installed image with) Type in ADMIN Cmd Prompt DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /source:wim:C:\install.wim:1 /limitaccess press enter on keyboard, wait for it to finish If this does not work, sit back, relax several options now: Backup copy of image Reset/Recovery Reformatt partition, install ISO again Hope this helps
Both of these are supposed to effect changes, but I always used sfc first, then if problems were found DISM, never had to do it with media in though, not yet
After a few days of testing 10122 I've truly to say that's the best build till now of Windows 10. Everything is just working fine with no exception (till now)! So, I created an new WindowsToGo Drive using WinToUSB 2.1. That went also without any problems. It took 40min for to create that W2G drive un an external USB 3.0 HDD (normal 2.5" 320GB 5400rpm Seagate HDD) with an capacity used of 70GB. That was faster than the former 10074 with the same size! OK, on that I had to use the Beta of 2.1 while the one I used now is the final 2.1 which were released on May. 11. 2015 Everything works from the USB drive same as on internal HDD, just slower a little bit. Activation etc. was also taken over with no problems. Just in case I use an different computer for to start the W2G drive, the startup process need a bit of time because of driver change and may download of those. But that isn't an problem for me! Overall I could say that till now everything is just working as it should and I'm happy with that! The next few day's I'll install some of my special apps I use for servicing, include RAdmin, LiteManager Pro, MacroToolworks and others. I think that there will be not any problem with those Apps. Unlike the 'real' WindowsToGo Apps from MS, which could be from within the Enterprise Master only, WinToUSB could be used with all versions of Windows. It also could just take (clone) and whole installed system with added extra apps and put it on an external USB 3.0 Drive, which will save a lot of time! As there isn't anything to 'complain' on build 10122 till now, let see what'll happen the next few days!!
Well yesterday I spent 8 hours trying to log into my Microsoft account, all the while it would tell me that my email was already being used, and to please sign into a Microsoft account. It would not restore my settings, it would not restore my paid apps saying I did not own them and yet it would accept my sign on info. The user accounts in settings clearly showed my correct name and correct email address but it said it was not a Microsoft account, yet today it is. I tried and tried, and it refused to identify my Microsoft account yesterday-Friday. Finally after 8 hours of fighting with it, I decided to create a ISO and was going to wait until morning to do a clean install. However.... Today: I wake up early, slam a energy drink and some raisin bran, and go to turn on the PC only to discover the sign-on works perfectly fine. It immediately recognized my Microsoft account and setup my settings. I signed on about a hundred times yesterday, and each time it told me "Sorry this account has an email already being used" and "Please create a Microsoft account and sign in with it". BUT, today it signs in, in 8 seconds flat? The ONLY thing different today, is its no longer Friday. What the crap is that?
Tell me about it...! In my mind (which is the only place it happens these days!), I'm on the beach , kneeling before these beauties, and pounding the sand in frustration...! But, hey, what's 40 years or so among friends, right? And in my mind, the beloved wife happens to be somewhere else...
I think the Microsoft servers are a bit wonky this weekend. This morning I couldn't open any of my mail folders @ outlook.com. Most probably temporary, though.
