System Update Readiness Tool is included as a part of Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012

  • Artikel

Recently, while investigating an issue related to a .NET Framework hotfix installation problem, I reviewed the contents of the System Update Readiness Tool knowledge base article.  I noticed that the contents have been updated since the release of Windows 8.  Instead of needing to download and run a separate tool, the diagnostic and repair functionality in the System Update Readiness Tool is now built into Windows in Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012.  This change should make it much easier to investigate and fix issues on Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 such as the one I described a while ago in this blog post.

You can find more detailed information about how to use System Update Readiness Tool functionality in Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 in this blog post from the Windows servicing team.

    Another great command you can use with /Cleanup-Image is /StartComponentCleanup, this will check if any updates are superseded and it will uninstall them dism /online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup

    I have also seen Error code 87, which can also be that you are not putting a space in front of the /.  It should be dism /online, not dism/online.  Aaron has it correct in his post, but I have run into that before and it took me a while to figure that out

    Just a note, /AnalyzeComponentStore and /ResetBase are NOT supported in version prior to Windows 8.1 or Windows Server 2012 R2.  I should have said this in my first post. And another warning, if your Windows Update site is not the Microsoft site but a secondary site (at work), the /RestoreHealth may not work as expected because some images may not be available on a secondary Windows Update site.  For this case, use /LimitAccess to disallow DISM from contacting Windows Update for repair.  This is probably already mentioned in the blog linked above but not bad to have this here.

    Hi Anonymous - I'm sorry that you have had a bad experience with Windows 8.1.  There is information at www.microsoft.com/.../windows-10-upgrade about how to do a free upgrade to Windows 10, so you may want to look at that to see if it addresses the issues you're seeing with Windows 8.1.

      Everything wrong with win8.1 is worse in win10. You don't even own your computer anymore in win10. Why are microsoft game partners "System Services" in win8.1?
