Background: HP ENVY Desktop 750-514 running Windows 10 build 17134.112
System has experienced some problems in the past but I was able to fix them with DISM.

Current Problem: Windows update KB4338819 runs and results in a stopcode of 0xc000021a. Automatic Repair does not help. I am able to use DISM with the /revertpendingactions option to undo the changes and boot the system. However, I cannot repair apparent corruption with DISM.

Most DISM commands complete successfully, but restorehealth results in errors (see below). The problem seems to be the inability to read the install.wim file. Most help sites recommended using the install.wim file but my DVD only had an install.esd file. Per the recommendation at How to Extract Install.ESD to Install.WIM (Windows 10/8) - wintips.org - Windows Tips & How-tos I extracted the correct install.wim for my Windows 10 Home edition and have been using that.

More details are below. Any help would be appreciated.
