1. Download attached file and save it to the Desktop.
Note. It's important that both files, FRST64 and fixlist.txt are in the same location or the fix will not work (in this case...the desktop).
2. Run FRST64 by Right-Clicking on the file and choosing Run as administrator.
3. Press the Fix button just once and wait. If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run.
4. When finished FRST64 will generate a log on the Desktop (Fixlog.txt). Please post the contents of it in your reply.

Done!
Please see the log attached.
What are my next steps?

Done! I ran DISM as suggested. It resulted with 0 errors, but had no such prompts (see attached 2018-08-03 DISM.log):

  • Restart Windows to complete this operation.
  • Do you want to restart the computer now (Y/N)?

I attach CBS.log copied right after the DISM run.
