    Couldnot find Recovery Environment


    Hello there,The performance of my laptop is extremely slow and would take more than 5mins to boot up. HDD is present. So, I decided to reset it completely and backed up my data to a external drive. Then I went with option to remove everything including personal files. After the process was completed and laptop booted up again, it asked me to change the pin which I did and it took me about an hour to change the pin.I had harddisk partitioned into two drives, C and D. To my surprise, D was completey wiped out where I had my files, but C was as it is, no change. On top of that, all third party

    :)

    Unable to access Windows Recovery Environment normally

    Some entries in the bcd for the recovery environment is either corrupted or missing. To fix the problem, you;d need to rebuild the entries for the recovery environment.
    Here's the steps:
    1. Turn on folder options to show hidden files/folders. Open admin command then type: reagentc /disable
      - This will move 2 files from the recovery partition reagent.xml and winre.wim to C:\windows\system32\recovery
    2. If you have the Windows 10 ISO, double click on it to mount to a virtual cd/dvd else If you have the Windows 10 USB then navigate to Sources folder and look for install.esd or install.wim.
    3. Use 7-ZIP to open install.esd or install.wim, select and index. eg. 6 then navigate to Windows\system32\recovery. You'd see 2 files: Winre.wim and reagent.xml.
    4. Remove everything from C:\windows\system32\recovery (ie. your current winre.win and reagent.xml)
    5. Copy the new winre.wim and reagent.xml from the install.esd/install.wim to C:\windows\system32\Recovery
    6. From admin command, type: ReAgentc /enable
    Reboot to recovery. This will also fix the problem with shutdown /r /o
