[SOLVED] Win10x64 Pro - Problems with SFC and DISM (605, 0x800f0900)

Okay, I did that and checked the cbs.log and did something more, here's my changelog:
- replaced about a dozen .manifest-files in \Windows\WinSxS\Manifests which where definitely garbage (opened them with notepad++ and compared them to the content of a working Win10 installation)
- replaced that .mum-file (RestrictedCodecs?) along with its .cat-file in \Windows\Servicing\Packages that caused an error
- executed several runs of sfc.exe in between, each time there were less errors in it
- executed a dism /restorehealth which finished successfully this time telling me that everything has been repaired
- Windows update installed a few updates which required reboots, although I don't know which updates these were
- updated a few applications plus the Nvidia video driver (Libreoffice for example refused to start due to DLL-errors)

Then my last SFC.exe run told me that there were still a few corrupted files which could not be fixed, although it finished at 100%.
I turned off the PC, went to bed and the next run of sfc.exe told me that it found no integrity-errors at all. I guess that's the best message I got so far. :-)

The log is attached to this message.

...but there are two things left I haven't investigated so far: I cannot open the system settings anymore. The window opens and closes right away.
I read that this is a well-known problem and could be linked to the file \Windows\ImmersiveControlPanel\Application.manifest but I don't have it and my other Win10 notebook does not have it, too.
When I right-click on the Windows background and choose "personalize", I get a error message from ms-settings:personalization-background that there is no app connected to this action.

Wow! I'm astounded! You've done an awesome job! SFC is indeed clean now! What does DISM say? Can you show me the contents of the ImmersiveControlPanel folder?
 
Please try the following and let me know it there's any improvement:

Open PowerShell (just type “powershell” into the Start menu Search, then right-click it and “Run as administrator”), and enter the following command:
Code:
Get[COLOR=pink]-[/COLOR]AppXPackage [COLOR=pink]|[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000FF]Foreach[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]{[/COLOR]Add[COLOR=pink]-[/COLOR]AppxPackage [COLOR=pink]-[/COLOR]DisableDevelopmentMode [COLOR=pink]-[/COLOR]Register [COLOR=#800000]"$($_.InstallLocati[COLOR=#800000]on)\AppXManifest.xml"[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000]}[/COLOR][/COLOR]
 
This command finished and threw an exception for Windows.MiracastView which has no value for InstallLocation.
But the problem persists. :-/

I started windowsupdate.diagcab and it told me the following:
- at least one update component is not properly configured
- there is a potential error in the Windows update database
- there are pending updates

The latter explained why I still see "install updates and restart / shutdown" in the menu. Yesterday I thought that I had installed them, but it seems as if the installation failed.

But even when I let that wizard repair everything, the same errors pop up after I start that wizard again. No matter if I restart my PC or not.
Maybe those problems are linked together? Not the Miracast one, but the rest? :-/
 
Here you go. :-)

Maybe I made a translation error: With "pending" I did not mean "updates which require a reboot", but "updates which still need to be downloaded and installed".

I don't know as I can't get to the system settings and the only thing I see is the "install updates and restart / shutdown" which is still there in the start menu -> power icon.
 
Same problem with the new admin-user. :-(
The system settings app opens and then closes immediately.

Extended self-test completed without errors.

...correct me if I am wrong, but the official OCZ utility has no drive checking tools except for showing the SMART-status. :-/

I mean, yes - the firmware is not the latest, but that would not cause problems with just the system settings?
Else I would have expected similar problems earlier or a much worse SMART-status.
 
That's correct. I asked for the utility results because I want to check the smart status, because something is off here, and I'm suspecting a hardware failure of some sort.
 
Either that or the drive's incapability of handling unsafe shutdown recovery due to the old firmware... maybe both. :-)

I just discovered something new in the event log that pops up with every start of the system settings (I should have checked that one earlier...):
Der Server "windows.immersivecontrolpanel_10.0.2.1000_neutral_neutral_cw5n1h2txyewy!microsoft.windows.immersivecontrolpanel" konnte innerhalb des angegebenen Zeitabschnitts mit DCOM nicht registriert werden.

Roughly translated: unable to start a dcom server microsoft.windows.immersivecontrolpanel
Event-ID: 10010
 
I deactivated all services in msconfig.exe and all startup-services in the task-manager. Rebooted and the system settings still won't open.
