Can't seem to upgrade Windows 10 - Error 0x8007000d
I've been struggling for a while with this - I've tried every article I could find. Just can't get Windows to update :(
When I use Windows Update, I get: Error Code 0x800700d
When I created a Windows 10 CD (Windows 10 May 2021 update): It takes a very long time and then just pops a box that said Installation Failed.
When I run SFC /scannow: Windows did not find any integrity violations
I have run all from the Administrator user (which is pretty much a new profile as I have my own domain account on the box).
When I run DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth: I get Error: 87. The cleanup-image is unknown
I don't even know what else to do at this point :(

That is the correct command ( DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /Scanhealth )
Also that is not good news that it will not run. I have used DISM numerous times.
At this point, then, you should do a Windows 10 Repair Install.
Go to the Media Creation Link:
Windows 10 is running, so click on the Download button (not Upgrade Button) and select Run.
This will launch the Repair and proceed normally.
Begin with the option to Keep Everything. This usually works. The other two options ( Keep only Data (keeps your user profile but you must reinstall software) and Keep Nothing (everything is gone including your user profile) ) are more aggressive. Of course, you must back everything up first.
Push comes to shove and you can try a bigger drive and set up that way or try dual boot and transition that way.
But reinstall (the Keep Nothing option) is the only real overall option left.
