    You did not enter the commands correctly. Pay attention to the spaces in the commands.

    If you prefer, copy the commands and paste them into the CMD. To paste the commands, right-click inside the CMD window or press "Ctrl + V".

    The command you entered was this: (Missing spaces)

    dism.exe/online/cleanup-image/scanhealth

    The correct command is this:

    dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth

    Kindly repeat the procedure, ensuring the commands are entered correctly this time, and check if you're able to update Windows.

    If the problem persists, let me know, and I will provide another method. Click on the "Reply" button below my reply.

    Sorry for the delay in reply. I've been offline.

    Do you have a third-party antivirus installed?

    If yes, which one?
