    You might try running the command below in an Administrative Command prompt to see if it finds problems.  If it does, we can find what files it is not able to repair.

    sfc /scannow

    In many cases, Dism can reload the problem files and clear the repair status.  But if the files are being repaired and then you continue to get corruption, it may be something related to part of your system, such as memory or hard drive.

    Let us know the results of the System File check.

                    any one  knows  what  is  wrong?

    Have you looked at the logs for clues?   To find the logs, correlate their messages and supplement their meaning you could be running ProcMon to trace whatever the command is changing.  E.g. filter with  Category Is Write.   If there are no changes (apart from the generation of the log messages) you would know that the summary report was bogus.  OTOH if there were changes which you confirmed and a subsequent execution confirmed those changes were needed again, you would know that there was something happening to change things apparently not as designed.  So, then you could hypothesize that probably some other incompatible thing would be running that you would have to try to discover using more clean-boot troubleshooting techniques, such as you have already started doing.  However, instead of messing with your production system to test these speculations, it might be easier and more conclusive to first do them with a virtual machine set up however you wanted.

    Good luck

    Hello,

    Please remove if any third-party software installed on your system. Retry the DISM commands and check if the issue persists and let us know.

    Hope this helps, Good luck :)
