I hear ya. It feels like I'm giving up on determining root cause/fixing
the problem.

As much as I dislike having to solve problems this way I finally relented and

weren't lying when they tell you this will take a while. :) It was still
better than the time it would have taken me to rebuild the machine from scratch
however. Given the number of one off programs I have installed it would have
been weeks before I found and reinstalled all of them.
One odd thing I did notice afterward is that I had to reinstall RSAT. It just
disappeared during the process. At least I did get the 2919355 update
installed.

Is this a server or a workstation? There are times the only 'fix' is a non
destructive inplace install over the top but you need media and keys to get
this to work.

mount it, and run the DISM pointing right at the mounted version.

*Subject:* [NTSysADM] DISM image help -- unable to install KB2919355
Since we seem to be discussing patches today...
I've got a machine which refuses to install KB2919355, Windows 8.1
Update. It fails with a code 0x80073712.
I've been working through all the suggested methods of repairing this
and I've run into a snag with DISM in the process. In particular I'm
trying to go through the process outlined here...
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-windows_up
date/error-0x80073712-when-installing-kb-2919355/c5a08cdf-6e41-4b67-b2
ae-68f542070840
I've got reports of corrupt packages but I'm unable to clean them up.
I'm yet to find the required syntax to get the reparir source to be
recognized.
The particular command line I'm using is a variant of this:
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
/source:wim:y:\sources\install.wim:1 /limitaccess
I've actually mounted the WIM as well and have tried using the mounted
image instead combined with the /index switch. I keep getting an error
stating the files could not be found.
Can anyone guide me as to the best way to make the files available? If
there's a better way I'm game as well.
Thanks
