ran the windows repair on win10 and can't boot or anything

(1/5) > >>

garnita:
Microsoft tech support couldn't help, and tried to do a reset with keeeping my files but that didn't work.  Anything I can try to revert?  I have no restore points to use or image file etc.

I am now in Lazysoft recovery suite but doubt if anything there will help.

Thanks

This is what another member posted who had similar problems -

Boot with Windows installation DVD/USB, select repair and open a command prompt.

Type diskpart

Type select disk 0

Type list partition

then note the partition number where you installed windows.

You may need to list volume to identify the letter of the windows installation.

Type select partition X (X is the partition number where Windows is installed)

type active

type exit

type bcdboot x:\windows (where x is the letter of your windows partition)

What are you using to post on ?

If you don't have Win 10 install media but have access to another machine, you can create install media after reading the instructions at https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/windows10

When you boot up with it, navigate to the Install screen and click on Repair your computer which will take you to the same advanced options as pressing and holding SHIFT throughout a restart.

Click on Troubleshoot and select Command Prompt.

For interest, how did the MS tech access the advanced boot options to try the Reset ?

garnita:
I did a boot repair and am able to access advanced boot options, but none of them worked.

I am posting with my other desktop computer, also running win10.

Already tried the repair options and the "reset and keep files options" none of which worked.  It started to reset up to 30% then proceeded to undo all changes and went back to square one.

Based on this, will steps with command prompt still help?

I have this info from the boot repair:  Can this help?

Boggin:
Give those cmds a try.

What do you mean you did a boot repair ?

I have this info from the boot repair done from a usb stick with ubuntu:  Can this help?
