    How To Fix No BCD File?


    I have searched the forum and there's lots of hits. But very tedious going through them looking for the one that fits.

    If someone know which thread answers my problem then perhaps they could give me a link to it.

    This Win10 computer won't boot since a power outage last night and reports a BCD error.

    I've used Kyhi to boot and run a cmd prompt.

    Bootrec /rebuildbcd does nothing. It reports no bdc found it won't create one and when I do a dir of c:\boot I find no bcd file.

    I googled a lot and found a comment in one thread that said after win10 14093 bootrec does not work.

    If that's true that would invalidate heaps of the 'fix it' pages on the web.

    So what is the fix now?

    :)

    1. Right click on the Start Menu and select Command Prompt (Admin)

    2. Here type/paste the commands listed below

    Bootrec /fixMBR

    Bootrec /fixBoot

    How To Fix No BCD File?

    BCD File Rebuild and BIOS

    Our IT department updated my pc to 1803 not realizing that I have an X299 motherboard and a Samsung NVME SSD boot drive. I came in the next day to get the BCD File error BSOD with error code 0xc000098 (a known bug but not fixed a year after discovery).
    Our IT department looked up this issue and decided to rebuild my BCD file and was (we thought) successful implementing this solution. My pc then booted from the previous NVME SSD drive. I had migrated my OS from the 256GB SSD to a new 500gb SSD, both NVME.
    No troubles for a year booting from the 500gb disk and now it boots from the old 256gb drive which I did not wipe on purpose. I boot into the UEFI ASUS bios on the pc and the boot order configuration only lists one option for position 1 to 4. Before each position
    listed each bootable device. First of all why in the world would a Windows update and BCD file rebuild screw with the BIOS and second how do I get the proper C: drive boot with to way to change the boot order in the BIOS?
