Can't reinstall WMC in Windows 10 DISM error?

Hi,

I installed WMC on a windows 10 PC and it worked for a while. I was going to set up a couple extenders tonight and I noticed WMC had disappeared, or at least the EXE file wasn't working.

I tried to reinstall and ran into this error:

Hopefully that link will work. Something like "the specified package is not compatible with this image". DISM apparently stands for Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool.

Anyone seen an error like this before?

Mike

I would run the uninstaller in WMC 8.8.2 then reboot and reinstall using WMC 8.8.2.

Hi,

It seems I have the wrong version of DISM for the download.

This is what happens after I run Installer.cmd:

Did you get this resolved? I noticed you're using v1809 => does anyone have WMC working with this release?

… note that just to complicate matters even more v1903 is only a few weeks away !!

I think the best approach for WMC is to simply keep your WMC machine on Windows 7 :-)
