Found information on this site to execute a DISM repair by specifying a source:

https://www.windowscentral.com/how-use-dism-command-line-utility-repair-windows-10-image

First downloaded MediaCreationTool_22H2.exe from Microsoft and created Windows_22H2.iso
Burned it to a DVD and mounted this DVD in DVD-drive of HP ProBook 450 G4

Then executed DISM /online /restoreHealth and specified Source: (F:-drive is DVD-drive)

The process seemed stuck at approx. 62.3 % and after a while went to 100%
It did not seem to access the DVD - no spin up heard.

 

There is only a install.esd in the *.ISO image - no install.WIM

 

What am I doing wrong here?

What does the /Online parameter to DISM mean?
The active running OS or a reference to be Online on the Internet?

 

Any advice is welcome

Hello @TheMonk-1 
If this issue is anyway related to a corrupt OS, I recommend doing a clean reinstall of Windows via the HP Cloud recovery tool for best results- https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/ish_4374279-4216685-16

 

Coming to your questions:

The /Online parameter tells DISM to target the running Windows installation on your PC — the currently active OS. It does not mean “online on the Internet.”

You’re telling DISM: “Repair the Windows image that’s currently installed on this computer.”

If you want to repair an offline image (like from a mounted WIM/ESD of another OS), you use /Image:<path> instead.

Hope this helps!
