SFC says it repairs startup files but doesn't work, dism didn't work at all, the SSD shows up as healthy and partitioned etc, further investigation showed windows isn't installed so can't reset or restore etc. What do?

At least it's the school holidays, so he won't lose his school work.

I'll have to get an ISO and go from there I think.
