While waiting on a fix, here's an interesting/useful "Dism++" software that includes some useful functions:

It can (safely) clean out WinSxs stores, which saved ~600 Mb to ~1,200 Mb on various machines, can disable the little arrows on desktop icons, and dozens of other tweaks.
Can also convert .esd files to .iso files.

Shane has incorporated a fix in 3.9.8 but I've found that while it will report no problems with Reparse Points after running the repair, it still lists them as info at the bottom of the repair window.

I've emailed him about that, so will have to wait until he checks that out.

Build 3.9.9 was released quickly after 3.9.8.
No reparse errors now being reported, build 14393.10.

I'll have to update and see how that reports mine.

I had let Shane know how 3.9.8 was reporting on mine and not fully opening in Safe Mode when not connected to the 'net.

I've run 3.9.9 and it's doing the same as 3.9.8

The Pre-Scan says no Reparse Point Problems but underneath it says it has found 73 and when you hit the repair button and it does the scan, nothing comes up with it saying at the bottom, Problems: No but for Info it reports 73.

It's as if it's ignoring non-system Reparse Point corruption.

There doesn't appear to be any adverse effects, but it makes you wonder what is wrong with the ones it reported previously.
