    Recovery Environment not working, Multiple Recovery Partions, reagentc.exe not working


    Hello,I recently wanted to go into the Windows Recovery Environment, to boot into safe mode, but the Recovery Environment didn't work. There was no way for me to get into it. I was aware that it doesn't work on my PC, because a year or so it also didn't work, I didn't bother back then but now I thought it might me good if I don't have to boot from an USB Drive everytime.On the search of a solution I found out that I have multiple recovery partitions:Form my knowledge this is where the Recovery Environment is stored so I wanted to delete the unused ones.The I found out that the reagentc /info c

    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
