Hi Yes HP Omen W11 Pro. So far I'm up to booting from usb chkdsk and dism etc. Left running and gone to bed. Looks like it'll take a while.

It was an option in the BIOS. Yes data on second HD and on double HD in NAS.

Thanks I'll try teseating the cable to the SSD. F9 gets me to choosing UEFI boot or legacy and though I can move between the two I can't get to any more choices. I ran the quick hard drive test and it passed.

Where would my system image be ? Think I know the answer but I back up to NAS. Never understood what you do with a system lmage. Are you saylng the hard drive had failed?

I left my PC processing a set of astrophotography images. An operation that can take up a couple of hours. When I came back later there's a message that effectively says it can't find an operating system. Tried booting holding F2 F10 F11 del escape. Even o ne that has a choice of selecting...

Tonight a notification came up that a new version of explorerpatcher was available and after installing it my quicklaunch now works.

I don't see any way to receive notifications BTW so just checked in here and found the replies.

I had to reinstall explorerpatcher I remember several months bak. There are 50 items in the quicklaunch folder. If I click on the >> icon it highlights but nothing happens. I now have to access qucklaunch by right clicking on quicklaunch on the taskbar then open folder then clicking the shortcut.

Since 1st October windows updates I find my quick launch won't open. I have removed it/added it, even mad a new folder of the items (50 of them) but still it wont launch. I have run sfc/scannow which found and corrected errors too. Anyone else noticed this/found a solution?

Got quick launch back. Until you mentioned console I didn't realise the properties setting was other than a dispay window. I changed toolbar settings to windows 10 Explorer Patch and now up and running. Many thanks for all your help.
