    Windows can't boot error 0xc000000f


    I just tried to turn on my PC and it instantly ran into a random problem that I've never encountered before. It tells me "Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem:"

    1. Insert your windows installation disk and restart your computer

    2. Choose your language setting

    3. Click "Repair your computer"


    status: 0xc000000f


    Info: The boot selection failed because required device is inaccessible


    First I haven't changed anything on my computer, and I was on it yesterday and it worked 100% fine. Now I've done all these steps. I don't have a disk, but I have the windows media tool on a flash drive and I've tried to repair my device. After I got to repair My computer it'll start for a second and then stop and says it can't repair. I went to the section to uninstall recent updates, and both subsections would instantly push me out saying it can't uninstall any recent updates. I don't have a backup point so that's out of the question as well. I've tried to reinstall windows, but since there is windows already on that drive I cannot reinstall windows nor can I access my it to uninstall windows. I don't want to lose all my data, but right now my whole PC has turned into a paperweight.


    How do I fix this problem? I don't believe my computer went through any updates because when if it needed to update it usually would say "Update and Shutoff" when I go to turn it off.

    :)

    Windows 10 boot error 0xc000000f

    Hello, thanks to contact the Microsoft Community. My name is Israel Torres, I am

    an Independent Advisor.

    The boot error 0xC000000f in Windows 10 occurs when Windows attempts to read the Boot Configuration Data

    In order to fix the boot error 0xC000000F in Windows 10, you can also use the built-in bootrec.exe tool. Please note that a bootable Windows Installation DVD or USB is required. The goal is to rebuild the Boot Configuration Data (BCD) that controls how Windows
    10 is started.

    Step 1. Reboot your computer.

    Step 2. Insert the bootable DVD or USB installation disk.

    Step 3. Reboot your computer again and press “R.”

    Step 4. Click “Troubleshoot.”

    Step 5. Click “Command Prompt.”

    Step 6. Type “bootrec /fixmbr” and press Enter.

    Step 7. Type “bootrec /fixboot” and press Enter.

    Step 8. Type “bootrec /rebuildbcd” and press Enter.

    Cannot boot HP laptop Error Code 0xc000000f

    OK. Now run HD Tune:
    SMART params

    Should the partition table be empty?

    Error Scan results

    Windows can't boot error 0xc000000f [​IMG]

    So 6 damaged areas, 0.2% damaged. Clearly zero would be best, thoughts on trying to continue with existing HDD?

    Comments and suggestions appreciated.

    Many thanks.

    as you reference on how to recover Windows 10. We suggest following the instructions under Use installation media to reinstall
    Windows 10.

    We are looking forward to your response.
