DISM cannot find source files no matter what I try

SFC DISM errors on Server 2019 Std.

This is a Hyper-V host. hosting one Server 2019 VM and one Windows 10 VM both on the D: drive

SFC cannot fix errors.

DISM RestoreHealth gets to 97% then says source cannot be found.

I have mounted the server 2019 ISO and set path to install.wim but still get the source could not be found.

I ran CHKDSK /f c: on the RAID1 SSD array. It appeared to pause a couple of times then completed.

Tried SFC DISM etc again but still cannot find the source files???

I tried using install.wim. should I use install.wid ?
Source:F:\sources\install.wim /limitaccess
but didn't know the index number (F: is the mounted ISO)
As it is the GUI version i will try with the index 1

That worked thanks.

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:WIM:F:sources\install.wim:2 /LimitAccess

What i missed was the : after install.wim
SFC now successfully fixed files!!!

Thanks again for your help
