    This is amazing video. You've perfectly explained the boot sequence. Suddenly it all falls in place. After migrating windows 11 with suspended bitlocker via copying partitions an error 0xc000000e (yes E, not a typo, win 11 do have this erro code as well) popped up. Copying partition messed up visibility, that confused bootloader and subsequent repair attempts completely messed the BCD configuration. Your video was an excelent guide to fix this. Many many thanks. keep up the good work.🥰

      This is big advantage of Samsung SSDs, their clone tool (it works only with samsung SSD) can be run from Windows and it's 100% reliable, it can even clone to smaller disk if I know, it's the best thing, unfortunately only for samsung.

  • @BT843
    @BT843 Před 8 měsíci +2

    When in Windows 11 desktop my "list volume" shows my drives and associated letters correctly, as well as the boot loader showing partition=C and osdevice partition=C correctly. But when I use my windows 11 installation USB to access the advance recovery options screen and perform the steps you provide the "list volume" shows my drives with all the wrong letters. My windows C drive is now my E drive, but the boot loader device and osdevice are pointing at E. That is not showing a discrepancy but it is not reflecting the correct lettered drives on my desktop. Not sure what to do here. I am able to boot into windows, but because of the missing winload file I cannot access the advanced recovery screen without booting with my USB and I would like to clone my OS to a new SSD but not until I can resolve this.

    • @WindowsTips101
      @WindowsTips101  Před 8 měsíci

      Firstly, you are seeing the different mounting letters which is normal because you are booting the pc with different windows, the original windows on one of your hard drives and the winpe on the usb, each windows could mount the devices and assign letter differently. Secondly, you still be able to boot windows on one of your hard drives, meaning winload is working fine. Thirdly, not being able to boot to recover environment is a different problem. You need to check if the recovery partition physically exist on one of your hard drives and there should be an entry in BCD file pointing correctly to that partition. Lastly, win RE may be corrupted, you may want to refer to Microsoft document on how to recover the recovery partition.

      It could be. You can try to troubleshoot the boot settings in the BCD to see what is wrong.

  • @NigelAves
    @NigelAves Před 3 měsíci

    ADVICE NEEDED. I "had" a dual-boot system with Ubuntu (on its own disk) and Windows 11 (loaded on C:). Windows was loaded first, then Ubuntu and this was set as a Dual-boot. Unfortunately, something went wrong with the SSD on which Ubuntu was loaded. And, of course, now I get the dreaded error message. What is a little strange to me is that I'll get the error on a Cold start or using Restart, BUT if I go into BIOS first and then start the computer, it fires up with no issues reported. So before I manage to make matters worse, will this fix work for me? Kind Regards - Nigel.

    Great video, it worked. Now I have a question: what is that long alphanumerical value between {} (for example, in resumeobject)? I understand that it's sort of the ID of the partition, but what is its exact name?
    My problem is that I clone HDDs with Windows, Linux, GRUB, EFI and backup partitions. After clone, I must fix this issue of the BCD to boot into Windows, but this also happens everytime I restore from the backups. As I can't modify the BCD table stored in the backup, I'm looking to fix this problem by its deep roots, meaning chainging partition's ID or whatever its necessary. I've already tried cloning with Ghost 11.5.1 (DOS) and Minitool ShadowMaker (Windows) with the option of sector-by-sector clone, so I guess cloning again with another tool won't solve anything.
    Is it possible to change this {88888888-4444-4444-4444-121212121212} value ON the disk to avoid this BCD failure?

    • @fededemarcos1172
      @fededemarcos1172 Před 3 měsíci

      Ok, I've found on detailed blogs that this hex serial in form of {8-4-4-4-12} is called UUID/GUID, and there is one for the whole drive and one for each partition. I already 'cloned' manually the UUID of the drive using diskpart, but now I have to figure out how to modify the UUID of each partition from a Linux enviroment (apparently, doing this from Windows is not possible), OR cloning back the whole drive but using dd (from linux console, aaaaaghhhhhhhhhh)

      I had that message from a boot from win dvd and it's because your BCD file is so mangled it bcdedit can't open it - that's ok you can go straight to bcdedit /import if you have a backup or rebuildbcd if you haven't.

    I fixed it with EasUS bootable disk with recovery tools, you just click on "fix boot" and it's fixed. I really don't understand why such global corporations like Miscrosoft can't have such options and tools included in their operating systems and on their bootable iso with Windows installation. These tools from 3rd party companies saved my many times just by clicking on "the hell fix it" or "recover partition" or somethinfg, it's that simple.
    In XP an 7 time, just fixboot and fixmbr fixed almost everything, but in Win 10, it doesn't work anymore and those stupid EFI/UEFI or something boot managers are killing it completely, sometimes I remove disk with no OS and it doesn't work for no reason, it's mess now on modern computers, you have no control over it like in the past when you just selected "boot from this disk and don't bother me" and you knew everything important is on that disk.

      Try to lookup the manufacturer' document on how to access bios. Test if you can access bios with their guidance.
