registry backup/restore=Startup Repair Infinite Loop

(1/2) > >>

Aniel:
used the registry backup option to backup and restore my registry, now my computer is stuck on Startup Repair Infinite Loop Recovery. note: it had happened x2.

my set up: i have windows install on C drive (ssd 500 gb) and user profiles on D drive (mechanical  drive/ 8tb)

please need some help on getting my windows back before i attempt reinstall  windows.

note: i have spend hours researching and trying solution from places like tenforums, google etc but no luck, please i would appreciate any help, thanks in advance and sorry for my English

To determine which partition Windows sees your OS in, rather than doing it as the article says, enter bcdedit |find "osdevice"

That is a Pipe symbol before find and is the uppercase of \

thank Boggin for replaying.
"How do you mean all of your profiles are on a different HDD ?" yes my user profiles are on d drive i used this guide: https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/1964-move-users-folder-location-windows-10-a.html
 reason is because i dont want my ssd to fill out with junk. however im having this issue now, i gonna use this guide: http://www.tweaking.com/forums/index.php/topic,5137.0.html and hopefully i can get it fixed, please if you have any knowledge let me know, also i dont think my backups are corrupted, i think there might be a bug on tweaking.com that is causing my windows to goes into Startup Repair Infinite Loop when restoring. note: i have 3, different days,

Boggin:
So do you not have a system image you can restore from ?

Aniel:
no unfortunately i do not, what can do now besides clean install ?
