DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth [2:15]: This command checks the health of the Windows image and reports any corruption found. It verifies the integrity of the system files without attempting repairs.
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth [3:30]: This command scans the Windows image for corruption and attempts to repair any issues found. It's a more thorough scan compared to CheckHealth.
