    Hi Dagmara,

    What Insider build are you on?

    Use WIN+R, type winver for the build #.

    What is the Update fail error showing

    in Windows Update History?

    Hey! I have a Microsoft Surface with Snapdragon X, ARM64. I’m running Windows 11 Home Insider Preview 26H2 build 26300.8697. SFC found corruption it could not repair. DISM /RestoreHealth failed, Windows Update feature updates fail, Reset this PC fails because required files are not trusted, and DISM now reports Error 14098: “The component store has been corrupted.” I need the official ARM64 Windows 11 26H2 build 26300.9278 ISO or VHDX to use as a DISM repair source or for an in-place repair that keeps my files and installed apps.

    Try to run Reinstall now. Go to Settings / System / Recovery and click Reinstall now button.
