Win 8.1 Pro dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth returns Error: 14098

Question

I am running Windows 8.1 Pro and have recently been experiencing some odd behavior.  This has lead me to discover that my component store is corrupt.
I have attempted to use sfc with no luck and have posted that on a separate thread.
When I attempt to use dism /online /cleanup-image /retorehealth, dism quickly comes back with Error: 14098.
Event the dism log looks corrupt. Below is just the beginning of the file. the not English character portion continues and is quite large:

Is partition1 the "System Reserved" partition?  Could it be corrupted and if so, can it be repaired or rebuilt?
Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Glen

Honestly this is something MS should check into. There should be an easier way for users to implement this command rather then a complete dictionary to fix broken windows files. This is a Microsoft windows problem. I know for myself I had to use this command
quite often because I installed something windows did not like. Because of that window files became unusable. It would make practical sense for Microsoft to incorporate a feature that runs these commands in administration tools.
Run
Dism /Online /Cleanup-image/ScanHealth
if that runs an error then run
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup
then run
dism /online /cleanup-image /retorehealth

Edit: Microsoft has to make a serious decision. During setup, Metro, or desktop. Installing items in desktop mode is creating errors in Metro or windows store items. In future upgrades consider the flavors of OS, implement a users
choice. Desktop, Metro, or classic. Face the facts if you follow Linux method of desktop, and the install process. There is no confusion between desktops and we have a choice. This makes common sense. I like the feature of gnome or Ubunto it gives
the user a choice and a better picture for Microsoft. Lets face it, Bill Gates choose to hand over his business to people. This gave Bill Gates time to help other people that need help. How about Microsoft do the same and give people the choice between
desktops during install. Follow Bill Gates important roll in his life now. Bring some fairness and happiness to people that like Microsoft and what to help users get what they want and the best support they need. Doing this allows Microsoft the glory
to help people feel good about themselves. Sure MS can live in a dictatorship roll and continue to bully users to use the product, there is a consequence to this. Good young developers are working on a better OS and this is going to happen. It is better
to help people then to fight people.
