Hi, I was wondering if my recovery partition of my pc is corrupted.  On my asus laptop, in order to get into the recovery mode is to press f9. The recovery mode can't boot into safe mode it keeps showing preparing automatic repair(upon selecting restart to advance option but windows 8 recovery environment used to work fine with Windows 10 ). It can't even load system restore. I believe that's the windows 8 recovery partition(the os I'm running now is windows 10). Tried booting of usb and can't load safe mode as it doesn't provide the option.

RebuildBCD is an option for the command bootrec (called fixboot in Windows XP). You need to boot into recovery environment and then select "Command Prompt". A CLI prompt will open in drive letter X. Note that this command is not available in a regular command prompt. Type the following commands:

bootrec /fixmbr

bootrec /fixboot

bootrec /rebuildbcd

 

Hope this helps :)

I'll try it out as soon as possible. Hope it fixes it and I could boot into safe mode
