My computer failed to boot up this morning, giving me an Error Code: 0xc00000f
I downloaded Windows 10 installation files onto a flash drive, as instructed, and used that to reinstall Windows 10.
Now, I was following a tutorial that instructed me to go to the command prompt window before going through installation.
None of the commands were explained, so I don't really know what they mean, but here's the commands I used that were completed successfully:
X:\Windows|System32>Bootrec /fixmbr
The operation completed successfully.
X:\Windows\System32>bcdedit /export c:\bcdbackup
The operation completed successfully.
Now, here the commands that gave me a failed response:
X:\Windows\System32>attrib c:\boot\bcd -h -r -s
Path not found - C:\boot
X:\Windows\System32>ren c:\boot\bcd bcd.old
The system cannot find the file specified.
After that, I proceeded with the instructions to see what would happen:
X:\Windows\System32>bootrec /rebuildbcd
Scanning all disks for Windows installations.
Please wait, since this may take a while...
Successfully scanned Windows installations.
Total identified Windows installations: 0
The operation completed successfully.
What do these things mean? Does it matter if those two commands failed? Does any of this matter, or should I just run installation as it initially instructed? I just need to get my computer up and running again so I can continue with my freelance work, so any help would be greatly appreciated!
