    Access denied on bootrec /fixboot


    Hello,

    I installed Windows 10 version 1809 recently. It crashed after a system restore and did not boot anymore. So I used the installation disk and tried out the inbuilt repair functions, which did not work. I also tried line commands, which worked expect bootrec /fixboot. It said "access denied". Some sites recommend to use diskpart and then formatting the EFI partition. This did not work either because access was denied again (as administrator). Fortunately, I made a backup before and could restore Windows. However, bootrec /fixboot is still not working. I have the impression that this is not an error but comes with the new version of Windows 10. So why is access denied? How can the boot record be repaired if access is denied? I don't understand. Can anyone help?

    :)

  2. BootRec/Fixboot Access Denied

    Hi Rob,

    When I type bootrec /fixboot I receive an access denied msg. Is there a way to resolve this?

    I will try the EasyBCD method.

    Thank you,

    Amar
