Hi guys.. I came upon an issue when attempting to repair my PC. I ran this command: DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth. After it finished I received an error message stating the following:

The source files could not be found.
Use the "Source" option to specify the location of the files that are required to restore the feature. For more information on specifying a source location, see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=243077.

Below is a screen grab of the error highlighted in orange. Attached is my DISM log as well. What can I do to fix this?
