A technician is troubleshooting a Windows 11 desktop computer configured with UEFI firmware and a GPT partitioned system drive. Upon powering on, the workstation fails to boot into the operating system and presents a blue recovery screen displaying error code 0xc000000e, indicating that the boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible or the Boot Configuration Data (BCD) entry is missing. The technician boots the system using Windows installation media and accesses the Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) command prompt. Which of the following commands should the technician execute first to recreate the corrupted UEFI boot loader entries on the EFI System Partition?
- Execute bcdboot C:\Windows to regenerate the BCD store and copy core boot environment files to the EFI System Partition.Cevap
- BExecute bootrec /fixmbr from the command prompt to overwrite the Master Boot Record on the primary disk drive.
- CExecute chkdsk C: /r /f to rebuild the partition boot sector and repair damaged system initialization files.
- DExecute sfc /scannow to re-register the Windows Boot Manager executable in the system motherboard UEFI settings.
Cevap
Execute bcdboot C:\Windows to regenerate the BCD store and copy core boot environment files to the EFI System Partition.
On modern UEFI systems utilizing GPT disks, boot configuration files and winload.efi reside on the hidden FAT32 EFI System Partition (ESP). The error code 0xc000000e occurs when the Boot Configuration Data (BCD) points to an invalid partition identifier or when boot entries are missing. Executing the command 'bcdboot C:\Windows' copies core system boot files directly from the Windows OS directory to the ESP and regenerates a valid BCD configuration store, enabling the system to boot properly.
