I have a dual-boot laptop with Ubuntu 18.04.2 and Windows 10 Home Edition. I can't get to the sign in screen in Windows because it always tries to perform a Startup Repair and fails. I've tried using System Restore: when using the most recent restore point, the Startup Repair problem persists. When using the second most recent point (and last I have), before a Windows Update I get the 0x81000204 error message. Here's what I've tried so far:
dism /export-image /SourceImageFile:G:\sources\install.wim /SourceIndex:1 /DestinationImageFile:C:\install.wim /Compress:max /CheckIntegrity
(G: is the drive letter of the Windows bootable USB I created earlier). It ran without throwing out any errors.
dism /Image:C: /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:Wim:C:\install.wim /LimitAccess
dism /Image:C: /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:Wim:C:\install.wim:1 /LimitAccess
As suggested in the Configure a Windows Repair Source Microsoft page, I've also tried to use a Windows side-by-side folder from the bootable USB, by running:
dism /Image:C: /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:G:\sources\SxS
Tried mounting the install.wim image first in my Windows primary partition by running the following command, which I found somewhere I can't remember:
dism /mount-wim /wimfile:C:\install.wim /index:1 \mountdir:C:\Images\mounted
This operation ran successfully. I then ran
dism /Image:C: /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:C:\Images\mounted
as suggested in point 1 of the Configure a Windows Repair Source page.
I've tried diffrent indexes (1, 2 and 3), deleting the "Wim:" part from /Source:Wim:C:\install.wim, using the bootable USB directly as the /Source drive, creating a bootable USB in a Windows computer (in that case it comes with a install.esd which I handled acording to this guide. I've successfully ran
DISM /Image:C: /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup and
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /AnalyzeComponentStore
I've run an offline SFC which returned Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them.
Every single time I ran dism /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth commands I got the warning "The scratch directory size might be insufficient to perform this operation. This can cause unexpected behavior. Use the /ScratchDir option to point to a folder with sufficient scratcg space. The recommended size is at least 1024 MB". I don't know if this made any difference.
But most importantly (and cause of much frustratrion) I always get the
"Error 0x800f081f, 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 (...)
The DISM log file can be found at X:\windows\Logs\DISM\dism.log"
I've looked through the log files and I can find what I suppose are relevant messages like

So this makes me suspect I'm doing something wrong with the DISM source specification and maybe the replacement for /Online argument (I've tried /Image:C:\Windows and it didn't work), but I can't find out what. So my question is, given all of this information
Is there a way to successfully run dism to repair my Windows image and if so, what is it?
Thank you for your patience and sorry for such a long post.
Best regards

- Following this guide with several adaptations due to not being able to boot into into Windows:
- Ran the Command Line from the Recovery Environment (have used both the RE Windows takes me to after Startup Repair fails and the one accessible by booting from a Windows bootable USB)
- Replaced /Online by /Image:C:
- Downloaded the Windows 10 ISO image from the official website, then created a Windows bootable USB following the first method on this guide.
- Used this guide to see which intall.wim files were inside the install.wim file inside the sources folder. There are a total of 13 editions, 3 of them pertaining to Windows 10 Home: the "regular one", one called Windows 10 Home N and one called Windows 10 Home Single Language.
- Ran the following command to extract the (what I think is) relevant edition to my Windows primary partition:
dism /export-image /SourceImageFile:G:\sources\install.wim /SourceIndex:1 /DestinationImageFile:C:\install.wim /Compress:max /CheckIntegrity
(G: is the drive letter of the Windows bootable USB I created earlier). It ran without throwing out any errors.
- Added the argument /Source with several differente variations:
dism /Image:C: /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:Wim:C:\install.wim /LimitAccess
dism /Image:C: /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:Wim:C:\install.wim:1 /LimitAccess
As suggested in the Configure a Windows Repair Source Microsoft page, I've also tried to use a Windows side-by-side folder from the bootable USB, by running:
