HP Laptop won't boot - "INACCESSIBLE BOOT DEVICE"

Disk Management pic from the offending laptop:

Macrium had selected E: by default - was that the right one? E: is the partition with the Windows directory and all their files. C: is where the boot manager is, I think?

Inaccessible boot device

I recently got the error "inaccessible boot device" on a laptop with Windows 10 Home Edition.

No updates were installed between the time it was working and now.

I made a recovery USB last year and the computer will not boot from it although I have listed it as the first boot in the setup.

HP Laptop Black Screen on boot

Power on the computer and open the BIOS UEFI diagnostics.
This may be the F10 key (repetitively click during power on)
The default UEFI diagnostics are drive and memory.
If the UEFI diagnostics were downloaded from the HP website then there are substantially more tests including component tests. If there are available then run the extensive testing or if available the loop until failure testing.
Run this overnight.
The testing is designed to abort if there is problem found and post a code.
If the loop until failure is running the next morning then this is typically a good sign as one or more loops should have completed. Then press the escape key to abort the testing.

There are different versions of the HP UEFI diagnostics.
Open the website for HP and click on support and drivers > enter the product or serial number or model > select the operating system > view drivers > post a URL or hyperlink into the thread
The HP UEFI diagnostics can be installed on a flash drive and used for testing:
