All I'm trying to do is do an in-place upgrade or something to reinstall my Windows 11 so I can continue receiving updates. I've done a fresh install before but it's so difficult restoring all my files individually using the System Image, so I'm looking for help with just repairing my current installation of Windows 11 Pro.
I had debloated the system when I initially received it and I guess it gutted all the important telemetry or whatnot for upkeep. So I'm looking for assistance in restoring it back to normal.
Running "sfc /scannow" in a normal boot always produces "Windows Resource Protection could not start the repair service", regardless if "wuauserv", "BITS", "cryptsvc", or "TrustedInstaller" are active. However, in the Windows Recovery Environment, "sfc /scannow" appears to work. The command "sfc /scannow /offbootdir C:\ /offwindir=C:\Windows" also appears to work but it tells me to reboot my computer and run "sfc" again - which I can't figure out for the life of me how to reboot directly into WinRE.
Running "DISM", especially if it's with "/Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth" produces an error 127 or an 87(? I don't remember the exact number). I've tried replacing DISM files (.exe and .dll) from a Windows 11 .iso but that doesn't seem to fix that at all.
Please let me know if you need any other information from me and please help! I've been battling this issue for over a year now and would love some extra input.
Thank you so much in advance!
