MSCONFIG Blank Boot Tab
I was doing some registry tweaks (nothing related to MSCONFIG, just stuff from http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/37920...indows-better/ and now, my MSCONFIG boot tab looks like this. I cannot do a system restore, and I have run an SFC scan with no integrity violations. I have not rebooted my computer since finding the error.

I rebooted, and nothing happened. Everything's still the same. It boots up properly, but the MSCONFIG boot tab is still blank.
Anybody else can give advice? | | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop

Did a Startup Repair, and it wasn't able to fix it, ran it 3 times, nothing was fixed. I wanted to send reports to Microsoft and I let it, and the error message was that the system integrity check and repair failed. I ran a SFC scan right before rebooting, and I am running it again. | | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop

I found my own solution.
So I assigned the System Reserved Partition a drive letter, and went in. Turns out that the BCD there had a backup named "BCD.Backup.0001", so I just renamed the current BCD to BCD.old and the BCD.Backup.0001 to BCD, and everything works now | | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop

Did you remove the drive letter from reserve when done?
