Damaged MBR?

Go to solution Solved by Jimkirk363,

@AnatoliyL You could try this but beware u could lose data...

 

https://www.easeus.com/partition-manager-guide/rebuild-mbr.html

 

If it were me now the drive has shown signs of failing i would replace the drive and just pull the data u wish to keep off the old drive.

My ssd drive on laptop decided to give me "Boot Device Not Found" ,error 3F0
Weird thing is that if i plug it to my desktop trough sata to usb cable it shows up fine and i can access all files besides "user" which i need to take ownership or whatever.

I want to make an image of this hdd and transfer it to a new drive(so i can keep all the files and settings instead of reinstalling windows from scratch), is there a way to rebuild MBR (if that the problem) or a software that would allow me to do it in the current state?

On a side note, crystal disk shows that the drive is "good" how trustworthy is that?
