Windows 10: Unmountable boot volume - Blue screen error

Hi,


When I recently tried to restart my computer, it restarted, but the lockscreen froze. I turned it off, then powered it back on again, and I received a message saying 'Your PC ran into a problem' with the stopcode: Unmountable boot volume. It then straight away heads to Preparing automatic repair, however, ut does not load; it is stuck on that screen. I have tried to fix my PC with multiple methods except for the new windows installation because my laptop does not support CDs, such as using the command prompt installing new bios, and just about all the options in the Advanced options. Previously, I did not know that this was a possibility so I have no restore points. The first question I have, is:


Is there any other way to fix this without having to reset my laptop?


If not, I am willing to reset my PC. However, the problem is, when automatic repair loads, it shows the 'choose your language screen' then proceeds to go to this screen:





When I click on the troubleshoot option, it leads me to this screen.





As you can see, there is no option to reset my PC, like there should be. Therefore, I cannot reset my even if I wanted to. My question is: How can i reset my PC if there is no reset option?

I would really appreciate if you get back to me by the end of the month. Thank you in advance.

I have a blue screen error, Unmountable Boot Volume, and trouble shooting hasn't work.
Turning laptop on and off a couple of times gets me to "automatic fix" is being prepared, but then the screen goes gray with only cursor showing.
Ideas?

 

UNMOUNTABLE BOOT VOLUME error

Hi Andre,

The challenge that you're experiencing when you got the error, UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME,
is due to a damaged file system that failed to mount. It also means that sub-system in the machine failed to mount the boot volume. To isolate the issue, kindly answer the following questions:

• When did you first encounter the issue?
  
• What are the troubleshooting steps have you done so far?
• How did you upgrade the device to Windows 10?

You can also follow the steps that was shared by Michelle Her and
Billion Debbarma on these threads to troubleshoot the issue:

• Windows 10 Unmountable Boot Volume Error Message And Automatic Repair
• Unmountable_boot_volume -Windows 10
  

Hope this helps and let us know if it works.

 

Unmountable Boot Volume

Unmountable boot volume usually means a bad hard drive. Booting the XP CD and running chkdsk will sometime bring the computer back to life for a while, but eventually the drive will die.
