Windows 10 Troubleshooting Guide
Windows 10 Troubleshooting Guide
Hi, I encountered the same reset error on my PC. After trying a full reset and safe mode, nothing worked. I also used various commands in CMD and the startup repair option, but everything failed. Eventually, I reinstalled Windows 10 using the Windows Media Creation Tool without resetting everything, which resolved the issue. Now I’m stuck in a boot loop again. I have important files and don’t want to wipe my drive. Please help me.
Navigate to BIOS settings, choose the boot order option. Tap to add a file, pick your boot drive, browse through folders to locate boot64.exe or similar. Choose the file, rename it, place it at the top of the boot list, and attempt to start from that location. This method works for my Alienware setup too.
Hey, that's how I was able to re-install Windows i.e. after I changed boot order from UEFI, but I never tried finding the specific file - boot64.exe. After I posted this discussion, my PC has booted up. But, I think my D drive (partition) is now RAW. Is this normal? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Hello, your friend recommended a Linux-based approach, but since you're unfamiliar with Linux, you didn't explore it. After sharing this, your PC started up successfully. It seems your D drive partition might now be in RAW mode. This is not uncommon and can occur during certain recovery processes. Let me know if you need further guidance. Thanks!
Just a note, my computer has started up. However, I’m unable to reach my D partition—I suspect it’s now in RAW mode, whereas it should be NTFS. Everything worked perfectly before this issue... and I still have all my files there. How can I switch it back to NTFS without formatting or removing anything? Please help.
