Windows 10: X:\windows\system32 From here how do I get back to C:\ using command prompts PC is crashing...

X:\windows\system32 From here how do I get back to C:\ using command prompts PC is crashing . In windows 10.Thanks for any help on this issue.

:)

 

command prompt is x:\windows\system32

My computer crashed and I have tried everything I can think of you restart, but the command prompt starts with x: instead of c: I've tried the fixes suggested and listed below:

In Command Prompt, type DISKPART, press Enter.

When it loads type LIST DISK.

Choose the Windows hard drive by typing SEL DISK # with # being the desired disk number from results.

Then type LIST VOL which will provide a list of the various partitions with their assigned drive letters in Recovery mode which may be different than in Windows.

But when I type in DISKPART is says There are no disks to show

Any ideas?

 

windows 10 crash x: drive

Further to my reported windows 10 crash.

I have started to attempt a load from DVD or USB

All I have available on my PC is the command prompt.

This shows x:\windows\system32>

It will not take the entry C:

I presume before I go any further I need to solve the 'X' problem.

Any suggestions.

When posting suggestions PLEASE keep them to command entry lines as that is all I have.

Hi Paul,



Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. I understand the inconvenience you faced. I will certainly help you with this.

This issue may happen due to system file corruption. I suggest you to run System file checker. System File checker (SFC) scan is done to check if there are any corrupted system files that could be causing this issue. Kindly follow
the below given steps:

• Press Windows key + X, select
  Command prompt (Admin) to bring up elevated Command prompt.
• In Command prompt type sfc/scannow and press enter.
• Restart the computer.

If no corrupted system files were found in the previous state, then I suggest you to try the following steps:

• Open command prompt by pressing Windows key + X and selecting “Command prompt admin”.
• In command prompt, type the following commands and press Enter after each command:

DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth

DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

• Close the command prompt and restart the PC and check if it works.

Please post back with the results, we will be glad to assist you further.

Thank you.
