    Stuck in startup repair boot loop, C drive is in RAW

    I am not getting that error now. So I don't remember the exact words. Now after 'preparing for automatic repair' and spinning dots, windows starts and I see this screen.

    After running startup repair using the bootable win 10 usb, I got this error.

    How do I check esp partition and what exactly do I check in it? How do I format it and recreate the boot critical files? Please share step by step methods.I'm doing all this for the first time.

    I forgot to mention earlier. 1 hour back, when I checked my C drive it is back to normal. I was able to run chkdsk /f and /r These analyses were done after that. The issue hasn't got resolved yet and I'm still stuck on the startup repair loop. - - - Updated - - - Okay. So I eventually created an image of my C partition using Macrium Reflect PE environment. Everything went fine. For some unknown reason, the image was of approximately 100gb in size whereas my C partition was occupied upto almost 175 GB. Then I booted using the windows 10 USB and deleted all the partitions of the C drive during the installation menu that asks for the location of windows 10. Then I chose the newly formatted C partition to install windows. The installation went fine. I got to the desktop wallpaper screens and icons. Then I booted using Macrium and restored using the image file. After I restarted my laptop. I got this error.

    Then I checked in the boot menu of my BIOS. To my surprise, my SSD was not listed in the boot menu. Don’t know why.

    Then I booted using Win 10 USB, and ran sfc scannow. I also ran DISM, trying to restore the image from the official windows files present on the usb drive and got these results.

    I also tried to fix the bcd using the following commands. bcdboot c:\Windows /s Z: /f ALL The letter Z was assigned to the 100mb ESP partition on the D drive Now this 100mb partition is present on my D drive (SATA). The bcd fixing went well. I got the message ‘Boot files successfully created’ Unfortunately I didn’t click a photograph of the result. Now I booted again in windows and I am seeing this result.
