Windows 10: Macrium V6 Rescue Disk Will Not Boot in W10

I'm not familiar with the UEFI boot system in W10. Any pointers? Thanks.

:)

 

Windows 10 boot bcd error 0xc000000e

I had this problem during updating windows 10 with major update on my desktop, no idea why.

The best and simplest solution for this Boot BCD problem:

I use Macrium free rescue disk to boot my desktop (it's windows PE). This software has an option to FIX windows boot. You need to install free Macrium on another PC in order to create a rescue disk to do restore. By the way, it's the BEST FREE backup software
and that saved my life several times with image backup. Thanks Macrium.

You don't need to type any dos command, it's done automatically.

Boot your problem pc with this rescue disk.

You need just to choose your system partition and click on "Fix windows boot" option , that's it.

I retry windows 10 major update again, and that worked the second time!!!

Ricky,

Understood.

If Macrium Reflect requires you to make a boot disk / rescue disk / bootable-disk-with-another-name-I-can't-guess-at then you could test it by booting it from it to see if it causes the same problem symptoms.

Best of luck,

Denis

 

Hi,
Welcome to the forums, as soon as you switch on the laptop, press F2 button repeatedly, go to Boot tab in BIOS and select CD/DVD, press F6 to move up to the 1st position. press F10 to save the settings and exit. If you have access to another PC, create another Macrium recovery CD.
Starting with the rescue CD

 

Thanks brummyfan. Everything you posted worked up to the cd not running... it just hung... could be a dodgy disk. I went back to the Other Tasks menu in Macrium to make another and saw an option to add Macrium boot to the boot menu in the list, which I did, and this comes up now booting up... Windows will boot automatically after 10 seconds without user input:





I haven't done a restore yet but it all looks normal when it's running. I think I will like this because I don't have to hunt for a disk when it all goes awry. *Smile

Cheers

 

You still need a boot disk or usb stick in case your hdd fails, or c drive gets badly corrupted.

You can also reduce the count time to as low as one second (0 hides it altogether) in control panel, system, advanced system settings, startup and recovery (click settings button). I find 2 seconds is a comfortable setting i.e. long enough to react, but short enough not to be a pain.

If you ever need to rebuild your boot sectors, you usually have to reinstate the boot menu option as well.

 

Thanks for that. Have reduced the time and will try and make a disk later.

 

You are welcome and glad for you*Smile

 

When Macrium Reflect v6 first came out, the boot disk was not compatible with some versions of Win10 -- I know because I tried to do a recovery using MR and ended up contacting their support department.

Supposedly, with the upgrade to 6.1.1000, that has all been fixed -- and when I have booted from the USB I made of recent versions, it works fine in Win10.

So, you should make bootable media of the current release (6.1.1023) and see if that works. It should.
