Solved Windows 11 Boot with Inaccessible boot device blue screen error


Here's 2 little programs which I took from Macrium rescue disk:
peexplorer.exe: strip down version of file explorer GUI, will help you to navigate within winpe
pescreenshots.exe: will load into memory silently, will help you to take screen shot in winpe, just press printScreen button to take a screenshot instead of taking picture to post.
Copy to the root of your bootable USB, boot up then run, navigate to D: to make sure Windows was installed in D:\Windows.

In addition, try to run chkdsk D: /r to make sure it is healthy.

My next suggestion is:
Disconnect all other drives except D; containing Windows. re-run bcdboot one more time.
Reboot the PC. If still unsuccessful then some thing is wrong with system file(s) in windows itself.
I did that and removed other drive with keeping only SSD windows drive. As you can see boot file was created and sfc/scan now resulted in corrupt files but when I rebooted PC (and booted from SSD instead of USB) it gave me error. Will try PE explorer later today. Thanks

Copied the 2 files and pasted in USB drive (in root of USB) and then navigated to D drive which is now USB drive. as you can see the contents of USB drive. When opening the peexplorer.exe it doesn't do anything... @Topgundcp

nothing happens.webp

My mistake, you'll need one more file (attached below), copy it to same place. Here's the sample screenshot booting from Windows 11 Installation USB:screenshot.webp

Hi @Topgundcp

I was able to see the window when copied the dll file and have created the boot file successfully.. How will I capture screenshots?

Easiest way (IMHO) to fix the "Inaccessible boot" message is to do the following. What this does is re-install the windows bootloader.

1) boot a windows install media
2) choose "repair system"
3) answer keyboard questions if those appear on your screen after boot
4) choose command prompt.
(If you don't have a windows install media then if you have any winpe/re system or a macrium stand alone boot disk boot that and use the command prompt).
5) diskpart
6) select disk xx <xx is the disk where you want to install the windows bootloader -- usually the disk you want to boot from -- doesn't actually have to be the same as where windows is installed but on typical systems it usually is. >
7) list vol
8) select vol yy <this should be a "hidden efi partition> on your boot disk> - if you haven't got one then that's another issue but I am assuming one does exist.
9) assign letter=S <if a letter already exists then use that one and skip the command - I'll assume none exists so I'm using S>.
10) now list disk again and select the main disk with the windows system on it (it could be the same) and list vol.
11) select vol yy <if its not already assigned a letter and assign letter=W. If it's already got a letter then use that one>
12) exit <this leaves diskpart.>
13) cd: W\windows\system32
14) W: <gets command mode to the windows system.>
15) bcdboot w:\windows /s S: /f UEFI <finally job done>
16) remove windows install media / macrium / winpe or whatever
17) reboot Windows.

Thanks @jimbo

But I have MBR (I think) and not GPT so I guess UEFI won't work

I think you can replace the f /UEFI with /f MBR -- and ignore the EFI instruction.
so just do from the boot media after getting to command prompt

cd W;\windows\system32
W:
bcdboot W:\windows /s W: /f MBR

I don't have MBR system so I haven't tested this -- however normally W11 needs an EFI partition to work so I'm afraid you are on your own on that one.

Hi @Topgundcp

I was able to see the window when copied the dll file and have created the boot file successfully.. How will I capture screenshots?
Just run pescreenshots, it will load the program into memory. next, press "Printscreen key" it will take a screen shot on the current screen, a file save dialog will pop up and ask you where to save.

The command you ran above is correct (bcdboot C:\Windows)
Next make sure that C drive is set to Active, remove the USB from PC then try to boot.

No, you did correctly this time, turn out C: drive is where your Windows was installed.
Did you try to reboot ?

Shutdown the PC completely, unplug the power then reseat everything: cable, memory, video card ... If you have another cable to connect to the C drive then try that too. With only the C drive connected, remove the USB stick then reboot...

By the way, did you run chkdsk C: /r /f

Yes I have only 1 SSD connected which is C & D drive... 2 other Hard drives are already disconnected from motherboard. Also, I did ran chkdsk and it gives me error (don't remember exact words) and it tells that it will resolve the error in next boot...

What option did you use with chkdsk. option /r will deep run check disk and mark all bad blocks so windows will avoid using them. If you did not use /r then re-run it, else ignore what I said.
Do you have lots of data or software installed in your current Windows ? As far I can tell, we did all we could. The last I would do is backup all data using peexplorer to copy to another disk then re-install Windows.

Let me re-run chkdsk tomorrow (its bit late here). Till what time you are online? so I can share my findings. taking backup using peexplorer is good idea... but do you have any idea about how to take backup using Medicat usb? or how to resolve boot findings using medicat usb? Please let me know.... also do u know to make copy of windows programs so I don't have to re-install those again when I re-install windows? @Topgundcp

I never use Medicat so I can not give you any advice.
chkdsk /r may take a long time to run, so run before you go to bed
You'll be surprised if some, not all installed programs can run by just copy the folder where they were installed to another disk.
Is your PC supported for UEFI-GPT installed ? If so you might consider installing with GPT disk type.
peexplorer is good to copy from one drive to another, just drag & drop.

UPDATE: Out of curiousity, I went to their website and download MedicatUSB: Medicat - Computer Diagnostic and Recovery Toolkit
Took a look and to be honest, it's huge (21GB zip file) and mostly full of junks, mostly a collection of out of date software.
Let's try another way:
Download my version of WINXPE. Unzip to a USB drive then boot up (select the USB without UEFI Prefix).
Once booted, run Macrium Reflect then look for "Fix The Boot Problems", Macrium will perform the fix. If it's still does not fix then the problem is with Windows itself or Hardware. In this case download the Windows Installation from MS.
Do a repair update instead of fresh install so you don't lose anything.

Hi @Topgundcp

First of all thanks for an awesome share of Macrium Reflect... it successfully repaired the boot file and when I restarted it gave me below error.
