    Errors after cloning.


    Win 10. Business client. CANNOT WIPE and Reload! They have obscure software that they cannot reinstall
    I imaged and fabs'd a 3 TB Seagate drive that is showing errors on the drive.
    I have cloned the drive, which completed without error, but after 2 cloning attempts I get the same error:

    "Your PC needs to be repaired.
    A required device isn't connected or can't be accessed."
    Error code: 0xc000000e

    I've booted from a Win 10 USB to run bootrec.exe.
    Running bootrec /fixmbr is successful, but I get an "access is denied" error trying to run bootrec.exe /fixboot.

    bootrec /rebuildbcd finds 1 Windows installation but if I type "y" it errors with "the requested system device cannot be found".

    iv'e run diskpart with:
    sel disk 0
    list vol
    sel vol 0
    assign letter = C
    exit

    cd /d :\EFI\Microsoft\Boot returns error "the system cannot find the path specified"

    bootrec /fixboot give Access denied error again

    It's a GPT partitioning scheme with C, (Windows RE) D (Windows) E, (unassigned) F, (Recovery Im), System (unasigned), G (Unasigned hidden) H, Unasigned.

    Any help appreciated.

    cd /d :\EFI\Microsoft\Boot returns error "the system cannot find the path specified"
    the path on the esp partition is EFI\Boot\bootx64.efi

    try diskgenius free edition How to manage EFI/UEFI boot options with DiskGenius Free from Windows?


    1. to fix the drive letter using nt6repair in my boot media

    win7x64 boot media
    17514x64v26.iso

    win10x64 boot media
    1904v3.iso

    either of the above linked iso files are best extracted to bootable usb e.g. using this : Attachment 419747

    select the non booting windows partition in the dropdown, then click FIX

    Attachment 419745

    2. To fix the boot critical files

    use diskgenius to find the ESP device path and copy it

    Attachment 419746

    then open admin cmd and type

    bcdboot nonbootingwindowsdriveletter:\windows /s ESPdevicepath

    e.g. bcdboot c:\windows /s \Device\HarddiskVolume1
