Windows 10: Launching windows 10

I have a Dell Inspiron 15-3567 laptop running win 10 & 1TB HD 64 bit os

I did an initial backup then Maintained a periodic incrementalbackup on a western digital 2TB Drive

I was Having problems with my mouse and performed an ImageRestore using my AOMEI Backupper Standard Software.

When I went to Launch win 10 after restore on startup I got a blue screen that read as so


“RECOVERY

Your PC device needs to be repaired

A required device is not connectedor cannot be accessed

Error code: 0xc000000e

You need to use a recovery tool. If you don’t have anyinstallation medialike a disc or usb device, contact your pc administrator orpc /device manufacturer

Press Enter to try again

Press F1 to enter Recovery Enviroment

Press F8 for Startup Setting

Press Esc for UEFI Firmware Settings”





None of above worked and could not access my desktop so I hada win10 clean intall on a flash and performed that.

Then I also had all my data and programs on a separate driveand reinstalled all those

Took time but got everything working fine.


But now…….

When I launch windows at startup I get a blue screen withtwo window 10 boxes

Screen reads


“Choose an operating system

Windows 10 on volume 3 will run automatically in 20seconds

Then a window 10 box on volume 3

And another window 10 box

At bottom reads change default or choose otheroptions”

If I let the countdown run down or click the high lightedbox window 10 opens fine

I think I once opted for the bottom box and the recovery screenI described above appeared.

And had to start all over again.

Keep in mind all is working fine now as long as I openvolume 3



My questions…

1. Are there two operating systems on my drive?

2.Is there away to safely remove the bottom box or that system



When I run MSCONFIG /boot it shows both

Windows 10 c:windows : current os; default os

Windows 10 windows

Your Help would be greatly appreciated

Request any instructions be in detail step by step I am adummy

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

The Users list compared to the Profile list you posted earlier tell me there is not an issue with Users (a known issue where there is a profile in the list, but not actual User folder).
