Hello, I'm facing a problem here and the problem is that I can't boot windows 10 from my ssd. It looks like the boot sector is missing and I can't fix it. I can still access all the files from the disk.

Before this happens my pc ran into bluescreen for 2 times then it stopped, and then the next day i cant even log into my windows 10.

How can i fix this please help

    Hi RZetr0,

    I am Mario and I am a independent advisor, and I would like to help you.

    You will need to insert the Windows 10 installation media and boot your computer from it. Once you have selected your language preferences, choose the "Repair your computer" option, followed by Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Command Prompt. From there, you can enter the command "bootrec /fixboot" to repair the boot sector or you can try using a third-party partition manager tool to repair the boot sector, or you may need to reinstall Windows.

    Hope this can help you solving the issue.

    Best regards,

    Mário

    Just sounds like a incorrect boot order. Check your bios settings to see if it is set to boot correctly. No need to panic,but if you have access to the files then it's a good time to make a backup of your important cat pictures to a USB drive. I would assume that the SSD is an internal disk? Next time you see the blue screen error tell us what the boot error says. Maybe for some odd reason the files are fragmented and it is having a hard time reading them.

    If you don't know how to boot into bios

    We will need more information about your computer generally

    Brand/make model/specs. If you know of course. Was the p.c always windows 10 originally or did you upgrade it from Windows 7/8/ect

    Thank you I hope I can help I know how important having a working computer can be.
