Encountered a boot screen error (0xc000014c).
I'm struggling with a Windows boot issue. I accidentally pressed the power button during startup and now I'm stuck on an error screen. I tried using a guide with bootrec in the command line, but every time I try "Bootrec /fixboot" it just gives me access denied. I need advice on how to proceed.
I faced a similar issue where I restarted my PC during shutdown. It didn’t work past the BIOS, but updating the CMOS resolved the problem.
Can you access the Windows logo screen? If possible, force shut down three times during Windows Logo 3 times. The system should automatically enter RAID mode. Go to Advanced Settings, then Troubleshoot, Advanced Options, explore more recovery options, then restart and choose 4 or 5 as needed... Jayztwocents has a video about bootlooping a PC if you'd like a visual guide.
If all else fails, save the boot disk and reinstall Windows 10. There’s nothing else I can do right now.
