Windows 10: Changed Boot order after Windows 10 update

Afternoon,


On Sunday I switch off my PC and had an update and shutdown option which I did. I then went out for several hours. We had a broadband failure for several days but the computer was properly off when I came to reboot so assume the update had completed before this. On trying to reboot I got the usual warning bleeps and nothing. Using F12 I have been able to get the PC up again. The problem is that I have 2 mirrored Samsung M2 SSD drives which were my boot drive and a recovery partition on hard disk. The PC is now booting from hard drive. I can see the SSD and can run programs from it so looks OK. How can I get into the Windows Boot Manager to get the PC to look at the SSD drive first during startup.


Any help greatly appreciated.


Cheers

Clive

Windows 10 random automatic repair after changing boot priority.

Hello. So i have an Windows 10 Pro. Sometimes when i am changing in bios boot order from USB to HDD ( SDD ) windows starts booting with AUTOMATIC REPAIR and then restarting. Is this something with BIOS \ Windows 10 bug related? Tested on pc and on laptop , and sometimes it doing the same.


Situation on PC first,listen:

Few days ago after i change boot in UEFI BIOS from USB to SSD.
Then Windows 10 showed at 1 boot Automatic Repair.
When starting Windows 10 boot loader starts by "preparing automatic repair" and diagnosing pc.
Interesting is that if I restart Windows (after procedure mentioned earlier) it will boot normally. This startup problem was occured only when starting system again after shutdown or restarted pc from windows.So i was needed 2 boots to boot properly to windows.
But on pc, format was needed to remove completely issue and after format is fine.

Pc :
2x8gb Kingston Hyperx 1600mhz DDR3
SSD samsung Evo 250 gb
4790k stock
Asus Sabertooth Z97 Mark 2 with UEFI BIOS


Now laptop with old standard bios:
On laptop i made the same operation, change boot from USB to HDD and on first boot Windows 10 shows Automatic Repair. But it happened once and i cant reproduce. No format was needed.

laptop is very old with 2gb ram

Why on pc format was needed when on laptop not?



Thanks for suggestions.

 

Can't Change Boot Order

Cloned original C:\ drive to an SSD drive then followed the windows procedure to get to BIOS to change the boot order:

• Settings
• Update and Security
• Recovery - Restart Now
• Troubleshoot
• Advanced Options
• UEFI Firmware Settings
• Restart

The last restart does not take me to BIOS. I just get a blank screen. Esc key gets me back to Windows, but I don't want to format the original C:\ drive for other use until I am able to change the boot order. How do I do that?

 

Windows 10 updates change my boot order all the time

Indeed I have an SSD later added. I migrated the OS to this SSD with a boot manager.

But many people have done this; there must be millions around the world. It cannot be that they all have this problem or that Windows update is not feasible for all of these people!

Thanks for the suggested workaround, but that is not a solution. My SSD was already connected to the lowest numbered SATA port. I still did what you suggested, but to no avail. This time the update returned me to the BIOS with AGAIN the whole boot sequence
mixed up - how can I prevent this? Then after me specifying the SSD boot manager, the update got further than ever but again ending into a totally stuck system. Then after several fruitless restarts, the systeem restores wiondiows to the pre-update stage.

Is there a real solution that really works? Windows 10 update should be able to cope with this!
