Dism exe ошибка 112

In today’s post, we will attempt to resolve the issue of NTFS compression in WinPE 10 using all available disk space on your Windows computer. Using NTFS compression involves a trade-off between CPU time and disk activity. Compression will work better in certain types of situations and with certain types of files.

NTFS compression in WinPE 10 uses all available disk space

The NTFS file system used by Windows has a built-in compression feature known as NTFS compression. With a few clicks, you can compress files, making them take up less space on your hard drive. Best of all, you can still access the files normally.

Windows PE  or WinPE is a small operating system used to install, deploy, and repair Windows 10 for desktop editions (Home, Pro, Enterprise, and Education), Windows Server, and other Windows operating systems.

You may face this issue if you try to create a partition on a system and then try to format the partition by using the /C switch to enable NTFS compression.

Now when you create a bootable USB key in WinPE 10 x64 and copy the “test” WIM files to the USB key, boot into WinPE on the test system and try to run the following command:

dism /apply-image /imagefile:d:test.swm /swmfile:d:test*.swm /index:1 /applydir:c:

The DISM command is likely to fail with error 112.

Here, he partition on the test system is drive C, and the USB key is drive D.

Even if you use WinPE 5 x64 in this scenario, you may experience the same issue. The WIM file is split to fit on a FAT32 system. The log files are in the wpe5 and wpe10 subfolders.

To work around this issue, Microsoft recommends that you do not format the volume by using NTFS compression and instead use WOF compression by specifying /compact to dism when you apply these images.

WOF stands for Windows Overlay Filter. Unlike native NTFS file compression, the Windows Overlay Filter supports only read operations. This means that it doesn’t need to sector-align each compressed chunk, so the compressed data can be packed more tightly together. If you open the file for writing, the Windows Overlay Filter just decompresses the entire file, turning it back into a plain file.

The Windows Overlay Filter can take advantage of newer compression algorithms developed over the past 20 years, algorithms that produce better compression ratios can be run in parallel on multiple cores, and which require less CPU and memory for decompression.

This mitigates the issue and also makes the system runs faster by using a more efficient compression algorithm.

If when you run the built-in Windows 11/10 DISM tool, you receive error message codes like 87, 112, 11, 50, 3, 87,1726, 1392, 1393, 1910, etc, then these general troubleshooting suggestions may help you fix the problem. The error code may be accompanied by a message :

• If the accompanying message is – The restore health option is not recognized in this context, or An error occurred while processing the command, it could indicate that the DISM command you uses is not supported by the operating system version.
• If the accompanying message is – The add-package option is unknown, it could indicate that the option you use is not supported by the operating system version.

If a Windows image becomes unserviceable, you can use the Deployment Imaging and Servicing Management (DISM) tool to update the files and correct the problem. In the case of system inconsistencies and corruptions, corrupted Windows Update files, etc., you can run the DISM tool by using the Cleanup-Image functionality along with the available switches.

But if the effort fails, you may need to find out why this happened. Such errors are usually faced when you use the /restorehealth parameter – but could appear when you use other parameters as well.

What does DISM stand for?

DISM stands for Deployment Image Servicing and Management. It is a command-line tool that helps users service a Windows image or prepare a Windows Pre-installation Environment (Windows PE). The DISM tool is also helpful when the System File Checker stops working or the Windows image becomes unserviceable.

Fix DISM Error on Windows 11/10

1] Run offline ChkDsk scan

In an elevated CMD execute the following command:

chkdsk /offlinescanandfix

Restart Windows and proceed to the next action.

Read: System error 5 has occurred, Access is denied

2] Revert Pending Actions

Open an elevated command prompt window and execute the following command to refresh the DISM tool:

dism.exe /image:C: /cleanup-image /revertpendingactions

This will revert all pending tasks including Windows Updates. It is recommended that you boot offline and then run it a recovery command prompt.

3] Start Component Cleanup

Next, execute the following command:

dism.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup

This will clean up the component store so that everything can run properly again.

Read: DISM /Apply-Image command fails with Error Code 5

4] Restore Health

Restart and then Run sfc /scannow in Safe Mode.

Restart your system and see if you can run the following command now:

dism.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

How do you read DISM logs?

Windows saves the DISM logs inside the DISM folder on the C drive. The DISM folder is located at the following location:

c:windowslogsdism

On opening the DIS folder, you will see a text file with the name dism. Open this file to read the DISM logs.

This should help!
