Solution to boot error 0xc000000e by rebuilding BCD | winload.exe error | Fail to boot in Windows
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 авг 2024
- This video is a guide to resolving boot errors on Windows computer. The error is a Blue Screen Of Death (BSOD) showing error code 0xc000000e. This BSOD is shown right away as soon as we try to boot into our system. Restarting your computer, or disconnecting additional HDD doesn't help to resolve it. This error occurs because due to some reason the Boot Configuration Data (BCD) has gone corrupt. Due to this, our Windows Boot Manager is not listed in the BCD record and the computer fails to boot.
We will need a Windows recovery drive / Windows installation media in order to resolve it. Using the command prompt troubleshooting tool, we will rebuild the BCD. You can create the recovery drive using Rufus or the Windows media creation tool. The step-by-step guide to creating a Windows recovery drive or Windows installation media is given in this video link. • Creating Windows Insta...
Once the windows recovery drive is created, we can go ahead with the troubleshooting. There are certain commands that we have to type one by one. The video covers them. The commands are as follows:
1. bootsect /nt60 sys
2. bootrec /fixmbr
3. bootrec /fixboot
4. bootrec /rebuildbcd
The steps covered in the video are the steps that resolved the error in my system. My computer is a Windows 10 system and has 2 physical storage devices. The OS is on an unpartitioned SSD and the other is HDD which is used for data storage. I received a boot-related error (0xc000000e BSOD error or winload.exe error) which couldn't be resolved by any other means.
I hope the video helps you if you are also facing similar issues.
Thank You.

This didn't work for me. Thank you anyway. However, I found the source of my problem: Fast Boot was enabled on BIOS. Turning it off made Windows to boot normally without BSOD.
Thank you very much. I followed all the steps in the video, but unfortunately, it didn’t work for me. However, after reading your comment in the section below, I decided to give it a try. And guess what? It worked!👍
👉For those facing a similar issue, here’s the procedure to turn off Fast Boot:
1. Reboot your system and press the F10 key to enter the “Setup Menu” (Note: The specific key will vary depending on your computer or laptop brand; you can check on google to find the correct key for your device. My laptop is an HP EliteBook).
2. From the Setup Menu, select “BIOS Setup.”
3. In the BIOS Setup Menu, navigate to the “Advanced” tab and choose “Boot Options.”
4. In the Boot Options Menu, uncheck the box next to “Fast Boot” and press the “Esc” key twice.
5. On the Exit screen, select “Yes” to save the changes. Your computer or laptop will reboot, and the problem should be resolved.
Hope this helps someone! 😊
thnx alot
Thanks alot... It worked for me. From past one year.. I had this problem.. Now solved!! Thank you very much
I have been stuck on this problem for a week, but your comment helped me. Finally, my problem is solved. Thanks a lot, bro.
Thanks to this video too.
What to do if you cannot enter BIOS?
The command “bootsect /nt60 sys” didn’t work on me and it had some failed response, also the “Add installation to boot list” didn’t work. However, I still tried to do this fix. When I turned off my pc, I removed the bootable USB drive before turning my pc on again. When I turned my pc on, I went to BIOS and made sure that the boot drive priority is the Windows Boot Manager. After that, it just worked. I don’t how this fix worked on my end but I’m really thankful that it did. This is the only tutorial I found helpful. Thank you!
For those who have exhausted all options, you can try restoring your bios settings back to default. :)
Still get blue screen even after choose default option
it works! you're my best comment of the year THANKS!!!!!
And that wouldnt work :)
For anyone having this issue on a asus motherboard, open your bios and click "boot manager" in the bottom right and just click one of the 2 at the top. (I had 2 "boot managers" in my list and clicking the second one made me start up normally)
This worked like a charm, thank you.
Worked for me. You earned my like. TYVM!
My PC last step the choose of Y N A said the system cannot find the path specified. What should I do with it
me too
This might be because your windows partition and the boot partition might be different. Not on the same volume. You may try my video on "Repairing Windows Boot Partition and Boot Files". It covers in little more detail.
omg thank you. Ive been searching for hours
Thank you so much, it really works, you are a blessing. You saved my laptop, this is my everything 😊
What should I do if the total identified windows installations:0
Wow.. Worked like a charm.... Thank u so much
It didn't work for me 😢. I rebooted my pc after reinstalling windows and I got it again. So disappointed to get this after saving money for a new PC for so long. I wonder if I maybe broke something when I activated amd expo (it's off now). 😢😢
Thats unfortunate. 😔
If you have successfully reinstalled a fresh copy of Windows on your drive, there should not be any issue with respect to corrupted boot. I believe that AMD Expo is activated from BIOS. In case it can't be reverted back then, you may try re-flashing your system's motherboad with new updated BIOS from the manufacturer's website.
I figured the issue out. For me the ssd was not properly seen by the bios. To explain: The bios would recognize the drive being installed, however it wouldn't see it in the boot menu. Turning on some compatibility boot options entirely fixed the issue for me. Good luck everyone.@@tinytips4823
I'd LOVE to know how you discover these things. THANKS because it worked for me too - and I have 42 years in IT. I guess my question is how do you know the command line BCD etc stuff? Where is any of this written or documented??? AND how come "WINDOWS REPAIR" doesn't already have this built in???
All the issues in my videos are the problems I encountered myself. Let it be software or to some extent hardware. I try to find articles, documentations or anything that addressed similar issue. This is my main source of research. Then I try all, that I found, on my system. If it works, I try to reproduce the issue, if possible. If it resolves the issue again, I record my steps.
I have worked as SDET long time back for MS as my client. So, many technical stuff I have encountered during those days. I have read and used their test cookbooks and also created some. May be it adds up when I do research on a topic.
Windows repair never worked for me during boot related issues. I sometimes think why is that they are even giving it as an option for troubleshooting.
You may also find that the BIOS is corrupted. Reloading a fresh BIOS solved my problem. Nothing else worked - until I replaced the BIOS I could not get the PC to boot from any other drive, recovery disk, windows installation disk, or even a cloned copy of the boot drive.
Unable to configure..
Plz help
Perfect!!! Thank you!!!
Works with windows 11 as well! Thank you
Thank you for these elaborate steps
Worked for me
I am on windows 10
It worked for me, thank you!!
Worked !!! Thank you !!!
Thank you!
When I execute the command "bootrec /fixboot" it gives result as
"The volume does not contain a recognized file system.
Please make sure that all required file system drivers are loaded and that the volume is not corrupted."
Plz help
for people having two or more HDDs/SSDs in their PC, sometimes when this shit occurs, it changes the order of drive such that main booting HDD will go in least priority... try putting the main SSD into first priority and it will boot.
bro please help me, this happens to me but even when i change it does not work, appear a message like "reboot and select proper boot device or insert......"
After bootrec /nt60 sys I get system partition was not found
We can try some troubleshooting:
1. The storage device is physically connected well.
2. Reset the BIOS configurations. There is always one option in the BIOS depending on the system, that will reset the BIOS to factory defaults. Then check if the error goes away or not.
3. From command prompt, we can start 'diskpart'. Then we can 'list disk'. Then we can select the primary disk of our system with 'select disk number'. Once the disk is selected, we can do 'list partition'. Then we can select the system partition with 'select partition number'. Then we can set it 'active'. Then 'exit' the diskpart. Then we restart our system.
4. On command prompt we can run 'chkdsk c: /r' and 'chkdsk c: /f' (where c: is the drive with OS. you can list volumes in the disk part and check each volume for presence of the windows directory)
5. we can try from command prompt: bootrec.exe /fixmbr, bootrec.exe /fixboot, bootrec.exe /scanos, bootrec.exe /rebuildbcd
on bootrec /fixboot im getting access is denied
Try running the command: bootsect /nt60 sys
Then try the fixboot again.
When i enter the bootsect /nt60 sys it shows target volumeswill not be updated with BOOTMGR compatible bootcode
The system partition was not found,
OMG somebody help me pls...
You saved many bodyparts of mine! ❤ RESPECT 🙇🏻♂ and in addiction to that, damn microsoft ! 🤬Honestly, is it that hard to run these commands as a part of "Startup Recovery Wizard” ??? So what the does that wizard do anyway?? Telling me that it couldn’t fix anything…. 🙄🙄
I have this problem, but for some reason going into BIOS doing no changes. Save and Exit and It boots normally. I have to do this every time..
There may be multiple reasons that might be causing issue. But the most common I have seen and I once encountered was bad CMOS battery. In my case, replacing the CMOS helped.
When I did bootrec /fixboot I got access denied
Try running this command "bootsect /nt60 sys" then run the fixboot command again.
@tinytips4823 tried bootsect /nt60 then bootrec /fixboot and still getting access denied
@@lrobinson9356 yes sam3
@@lrobinson9356 I reinstalled windows because no hope
thank you very much!!!!!
this bootcode does not work with windows 10 anymore...
have you been able to fix it i just realised this
Nope had to send my hard drive into a data recovery center. This video is essentially worthless for those with windows 10 or higher.
My pc after all the steps did not restarted, only turned off
I got on fixboot and fixmbr... Can not find the file specified.. Any idea?
You may create a bootable USB for your windows and boot from it. Choose to repair. And from there go to troubleshoot and then command prompt. Use that prompt for the commands.
Hi sir
On 1:35 when I click next it takes me immediately to accept terms and conditions and there is no repair your computer option 😢😢
We can also open command prompt by pressing Shift + F10. When you are on the windows setup screen, press those keys.

yes sir I opened the command prompt but when entering first command it gives me a message👇🏻
“The system partition was not found:
The requested system device cannot be found. “

Hello sir
I did write the frst command and it gives me the following :
Target volumes will be updated with bootMGR compatible bootcode.
The system partition was not found:
The requested system device cannot be found.
Can you help me please and thank you
My laptop doesn't open its blue screen error (unmountable disk problem) i don't know the reason please upload how to fix it 😢
And i can't change any OS
It seems like there may be boot record error. You may try to safe boot with networking into your system. Search on internet to check for to login into the safe boot for your system as per its model and manufacturer. Once you are into the safe boot then in device manager you need to check if there is any error showing in IDE SATA AHCI controller name. Try updating it. Then restart system. If this doesnt work then you need to make a bootable windows installation media USB as per your windows version. I have covered this or you can find plenty of articles on this. Then you need to boot into the installation media. Try repair your system and system restore option. If it doesn't work then, open troubleshooting administrator command prompt. This i have shown the installation media part in the video. On command prompt, you can try some commands like:
1. chkdsk f /r C: (where c is the system drive in the command).
2. DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth
3. sfc /scannow
4. bootrec commands as mentioned in the video.
Successful execution of the commands should resolve corrupted system files and the problem. Unless the disk is not failed physically.
These are the steps I generally follow, for troubleshooting, when there is any boot related issue on my system.
I will try to create a video on this by recreating the error. If i can recreate the error then the solution will be tried and tested, instead of just troubleshooting steps.
thank you
When I do bootrec /anything , it doesn't work. It says 'bootrex' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file
Make sure if you are using the recovery environment command prompt. If it is not working then you may create a bootable USB for your windows and boot from it. Choose to repair. And from there go to troubleshoot and then command prompt. Use that prompt for the commands.
What if I don't have a recovery usb drive?
You can create one using another system. Microsoft provides Media creation tool on its website. It can be used to create a bootable Windows installation media. You just need a USB drive. I would suggest an 8 or 16GB USB. Also it should be a blank USB with no data or unimportant data. This is because, in the process the USB will be formatted and if there is any data in it, it will be wiped. Creating installation media is very simple. Just few clicks here and there. Rest it does on its own.
Thanks a lot. I will give it a try and let you know.@@tinytips4823
Nice👍
Solution 1
Go to bios and turn off or disable fast boot option this will may be solve your problem
Solution 2
If you just cleaned your pc and this screen appears it means your drive is unplugged or disconnected accidentally so first try connecting your drive properly and then changing boot sequence
Solution 3
if you have reinstalled your windows in other drive while one windows is already installed in your pc then you have two windows drive 1 have old windows and new window in drive 2 after some time if accidentally boot sequence of your pc is changed from drive 2 to drive 1 then may be drive 1 is corrupted or tried to delete old windows drive so some file are missing then you need to change boot sequence to drive 2 again
