    bootmgr


    I downloaded the anniversary update for Windows 10.

    Get error message bootmgr missing.

    I have tried the various repairs including using the command prompt. Nothing works.

    Is there anywhere I can obtain a complete copy of the Windows 10 pro 64 bit bootmgr file and insert it into my copy of Windows 10? If so, where do I insert it?

    I have been unable to locate a file named bootmgr in my Windows folder.

    Ignorance is not confined to the young. I am proof of this.,

    :)

  2. Windows cannot verify the digital signature for this file.

    I have found the way out eventually. Replace bootmgr of windows 7 with that of windows 10. Just this!

    Do you want to know why? read below;

    thing that bootmgr do is that Bootmgr finds the winloader.exe in sys32 and executes it. when you install win 10 while there is a win 7 in your hard drive, win 10 replace win 7's bootmgr with a new one and keeps a copy in win 10's sys32. This bootmgr can
    find winloaders of win7 & win10 and execute them depends on selected windows for startup. Therefore for recovery of windows 10 we must replace the bootmgr of win 7 with bootmgr of win 10. How to do? read below;

    Go to safe mode. Change the bootmgr of both win7 and win 10 from system file to usual ones by "iReset" software. Now you can do the replacement.

    Installing Windows 10

    Alternatively, can I fix the "BOOTMGR is missing" problem just by copying the bootmgr file from some other location? If so, is that file OS-version-specific? In other words, could I just copy the bootmgr file from the C drive of my Win 7 box onto the USB,
    or would I have to get a bootmgr file from a Win 10 box since the USB key is supposed to be installing Win 10? And finally (for this line of questions), there are multiple bootmgr files on my C drive, so I'll assume the same might be true of a Win 10 box.
    Would it matter which one I copy?

    Thank you. I had previously tried your suggestion.

    I have now tried it again and still cannot boot to Windows 10 on my SSD.

    The only ways I can get into the OS is by keeping a Windows 7 CD in the drawer, booting and not hitting a key when given the choice to go to CD or internal drive.


    I have not gone to a ISO. Simply do not know how to create one or use is.
