0xc000000f Error code during boot up

So when I try to boot up my PC I get this Error code

So what I did was re-installed windows on another partition, But the problem with that is I can't access any of my files when I'm on partition 2. 

So I either need to fix partition 1, or make my files accessible on partition 2. 

I'd also like to note that this is just out of my knowledge of the PC. So if you have a solution, explain it to me like im 5.

Yeah, I still have the install USB and my product key.

ok, turn off ur pc then plug the usb into your pc. boot then your pc should boot the usb, if not go into bios and set it to boot the usb drive first. Then you should see a blue screen. Select the option that says recover windows, you should have all of you options there.

Okay so I did this. Got to the blue screen where I have the standard Windows options. I did the automatic troubleshoot trying to repair Windows 10. But I got this message.

I just had something similar last night after I switched my OS SSD. I ended up reinstalling Windows 10 though.

Yeah I reinstalled it as well, but now I can't acces any of my files, which is kind of a big deal for me.

Yeah I could lol. But it's just gonna take me back to either the error code in patrition 1, or the windows option screen on my Install USB. 

no i mean the option on the screen. If that doesn't work you may have to go into advanced options and get rid of everything apart from stuff in your personal files

try doing this, go into cmd (an option in advanced) and type this  


bootrec /rebuildbcd

1. So, I tried resetting my PC but I got this vague message just saying it wasn't able to repair my PC. No error codes or anything.

2. I tried the command prompt but that command you typed wasn't recognized. But that's probably my fault. I've never done anything with command prompt before.. Do I have to erase all the text in command prompt and then just type that?

I'm not sure what I'm supposed to change my boot priority to. But if it's my SSD with partition 1, i'm still getting the same error code. 

i can remember having the same problem as u, just remembered how i think i fixed it. Go to CMD and type these commands like u did before. 

bootrec /rebuildbcd       (saying Y to the C: drive)

bootrec /fixmbr

bootrec /fixboot

Is there something specific I'm supposed to type to say yes to the c drive?

 

when I type just Y it just resends the line "add installation to boot list?"  

 

And when hen I type (Y) it says "can't find the file specified"

 

sorry I'm such a noob at this haha. I've never used command prompt before. I'm not familiar with the language at all.

got this from a forum:

 

Possible causes I suppose are:

1.BCD is totally corrupted, you can export and delete the BCD store and then run the cmd again, to do this, type the following commands at the Windows RE command prompt:

  • bcdedit /export C:\BCD_Backup
  • c:
  • cd boot
  • attrib bcd -s -h -r
  • ren c:\boot\bcd bcd.old
  • bootrec /RebuildBcd

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927392

2.You may have errors on the hard drive, in this case, use chkdsk /r to do a further check.

3.The main hard drive partition that contains your Windows installation may not be set as the Active partition. Use diskpart to select the primary partition of the drive you want to boot from and type "active" to mark it as active

Yeah I don't think partition 1 is the active partition anymore. I'll try changing it and then running those command prompt entry's

Ugh, only problem after another.. Unless I'm doing something wrong, I can't make any partitions active. I keep getting the message "the selected disk is not a fixed MBR disk. I guess I can try the check disk

Idk what I'm looking at here, other than Windows has detected a problem

So, any thoughts? Not to be a bother, but I'm really needing to get my PC running again ASAP for work.
