    Winload.efi is Missing or Corrupt Boot Error


    Hi,


    I have a HP Pavillion Laptop with an 256 GB SSD and 1 GB HDD. I have installed Windows 10 on the SSD. Because my laptop was freezing I switched it off directly using the power button.


    When I started again, I got a blue screen saying that Your PC needs to repaired and that Winload.efi file is missing or corrupt.


    Following some posts online, I created a bootable Windows 10 Installation USB stick from my another machine and launched CMD in recovery options in my laptop using the bootable USB. But when I checked in Disk part, only the HDD partitions were being displayed. SSD partitions were not being displayed. So I'm not able to rebuild BCD. But I'm able to see the SSD in boot Options and BIOS. When I try too boot the SSD directly in CSM/Legacy mode, it says not a bootable media.


    Could anyone please help me to solve this issue. Is there anyway I can get the SSD to boot to Windows 10 or to fix the BCD or anything.

    :)
