Can you upload your CBS.log right now so I can see more details about the error?

Good. Now please run SFC again and provide me the CBS.log after.
 
I already gave you the instructions once so there's no need to do it a second time :)

It seems like you linked me the previous CBS.zip. I need a new copy of the CBS.txt file after you run SFC.
 
Sorry for the delay. And all good, no worries. We'll run DISM once more to make sure there's no corruption left (except for the utc.app.json and telemetry.ASM-WindowsDefault.json files).
