Yesterday my SFC /Scannow command, run from Powershell Admin found corrupt files it was unable to fix. I expected The Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /Restorehealth command to take care of it. Instead it reported "error 0x800f0906" and said it lacked the files to repair the problem.
I looked up error 0x800f0906 in a Dism command. It suggested a repair that started and stopped services, a
net stop wuauserv
cd %systemroot%\SoftwareDistribution
ren Download Download.old
net start wuauserv
net stop bits
net start bits
net stop cryptsvc
cd %systemroot%\system32
ren catroot2 catroot2old
net start cryptsvc
It also suggested Windows Update was malfunctioning and that I should fix it from The Troubleshooting screen. I did, and SFC /Scannow came up clean and Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth reported error code 0x800f081f instead.
I then used The Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup and The Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup /ResetBase Commands. I then used The Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth Command and it reported "No component store corruption detected." I thought I was in the clear, but Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth keeps reporting it found and repaired files and The Troubleshooter keeps reporting it's fixed problems in Windows Update. Probably not the biggest deal in the Windows world but a little unsettling.

SFC /Scannow found corrupt files. I ran Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image three times, once in Standard Mode, one in Safe Mode without networking, and once in Safe Mode with networking.
All three gave the same answer. They could not retrieve the required files which are at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=24307 This link just takes me to the Microsoft Download Page or "Webpage Cannot Be Found". I can't find anything specific with it.
