How to add BCD boot files to newly created EFT partition

My computer wouldn’t boot so how do I add the the BCD boot files to my newly created EFI partition when it shows there is no C:/Windows directory I can point to the point to copy the boot files even though windows is on that drive. My USB repair disk is drive J and it shows directories on there so what would be the path to copy the boot files from the USB repair disk? Here are some images.

How come you say you have a windows partition but you can't boot? Did you convert the drive from MBR to GPT?
You must tell us the hole story so we can understand what you did and what you have.

BCDBOOT <source> [/s <volume letter> [/f <firmware type>]]

<source>
- Required.
- Specifies the location of the Windows directory to use as the source for copying boot-environment files.
- Check the volume letter of the Windows partition with DiskPart’s list volume command.

/s <volume letter>
- Optional volume letter for the target system partition where the boot files will be copied.

/f <firmware type>
- Optional firmware type for the target system partition. Determines whether to copy UEFI or BIOS boot files.
- Used together with the /s option.

If the /s option is not used, the system partition is automatically identified based on whether the system is booted in UEFI or BIOS mode. Use /s only when targeting a non-default system partition.

Your system contains six disks:

3x nvme sn850x
3x Samsung ssd sata

When you are in the Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE), the volume letter of the Windows partition is not always C:.

To find the correct letter:


Then run:


Replace "x" with the correct volume letter of your Windows partition.

On a GPT disk, the bcdboot command automatically identifies the FAT32 EFI system partition, copies the required UEFI boot files from the Windows partition to it, and creates a new Boot Configuration Data (BCD) store on that partition.

On a GPT disk, the command above will fail if the USB flash drive was booted in BIOS mode instead of UEFI mode. In that case, you will receive:

"Failure when attempting to copy boot files."

You will also see this error if:
- you specify the wrong Windows volume letter,
- the EFI system partition is missing,
- or the EFI system partition is not formatted as FAT32.

1) Please boot to the flash drive Windows RE




2) Run > startup repair > search for srttrail.txt (windows\system32\logfiles\srt\srttrail.txt) > post a share link




3) Perform a system restore to the oldest system restore point > repeat as necessary to newer restore points




4) Open command prompt > type >

notepad
notepad
notepad

Save these commands with results to notepad > save to a flash drive > move to a working computer > post a share link
