boot usb get to cmd

Code:

cmd chkdsk C:/f
cmd chkdsk C:/r

Don't do cmd C:

I did that and nothing seems to have happened

did it come up with any errors, or the read only error again. Maybe you didn't give it long enough. As said in an earlier post, still may not be able to recover files if chkdsk can't fix the filesystem. maybe there needs to be a space between C: /r

[edit] chkdsk c:/f is running now (I was writing cmd before it) right now C:/r is running there's about an hour left

Chkdsk completed it says it made some recoveries, reallocated space and moved around some files. Still no luck booting into windows

you still have to run some commands

Code:

    Boot from the original installation DVD (or the recovery USB)
    At the Welcome screen, click Repair your computer.
    Choose Troubleshoot.
    Choose Command Prompt.
    When the Command Prompt loads, type the following commands: bootrec /FixMbr bootrec /FixBoot bootrec /ScanOs bootrec /RebuildBcd.

Code:

bootrec /fixboot
access denied.

I tried the second answer here

https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...c-81e572d546df

access still denied.

Code:

V:\>format V: /FS:FAT32
The type of the file system is FAT32.
Enter current volume label for drive V: SYSTEM

WARNING ALL DATA ON NON-REMOVABLE DISKANDAR
DRIVE V: WILL BE LOST!
Procked with Format (Y/N) n

V: is Volume 4 System FAT32 Partition 200MB Healthy Hidden
that's the boot partition is it not?

according to your fdisk output in post 3 it is.

try running chkdsk on the efi partition

zavmat · 02-06-2019, 09:02 PM

Should I go through with the erasure?

colorpurple21859 · 02-06-2019, 09:09 PM

are you sure volume 4 is your efi partition and not volume 1?

zavmat · 02-06-2019, 09:19 PM

volume 4 has the right GUID for efi.

chkdsk found nothing wrong
