Thank you! this worked! cloned ssd to a new one - deleted the old one via diskpart clean and came up with the boot error. Now back into windows finally! Thanks again!!

So this doesn't work for me sadly, but i FINALLY had mine working after following the instruction from an answer on reddit titled "bootrec /rebuildbcd "the requested system device cannot be identified" " it didn't work at first but then i changed the boot option in bios to the 2nd of windows boot whatever (there are 2 option of the same name, but apparently the 2nd one was a windows recovery one), save the changes and then it works! if you're having the exact same error this might help you :)

Installed a new m.2 and was having boot error, but this video helped fix it. Thanks a lot, you're a life saver

[EliTExASSASSiNx]

You’re a life saver dude! I had tried all the other methods to no avail but the (bootsect) was the only thing I did different this time and now it’s working so I think that was the 🔑 🙌

This fixed my computer. The hardest part for me was using another computer to download the windows installation media onto a usb stick. My other computer didn't want me to download the program. Fixing that was a challenge for me and got me pretty frustrated. After that I followed the steps exactly. I got a couple different results toward the end of the steps. Once I rebooted the computer though it went back to how it was before the crash. Thank you very much for saving my computer. It's been 2 yrs since I cloned my hard drive so I was shocked to have this happen.

People always saying this, but I will say it again. This is really helping when i got the error after cloning my windows, Thanks so much!!!

[realdealericneal]

Dude! I tried every other supposed fix out there and this is the ONLY one that I've seen with a different technique and it worked!!! So grateful, thank you!

[bayufebriandana]

Excellent bro, in my case after windows installation usb loaded, the 'repair' option didn't show up. I had no idea how to access the CMD, but the shift+f10 saved me, so I continue following the rest of the steps and its works like a charm, thank you so much bro, you're a LEGEND!

This worked for me in a Asus. I cloned a ssd to a nvme with Niubi partition editor (free), and did not boot. Now it works. Thank you !!

[enriquepadilla]

Genuinely helpful. Couldn't have done it without you.

It works on windows 11 as well.

[claremckechnie]

By far the most useful video I have seen re. thankyou so much. I have been researching this all day, tried everything, didn't work, (PC would not boot at all and my only option was USB for windows re-install) the technique explained in this video covered everything and actually worked! thankyou so much

[IridiumRacing]

Thank you. I watched many videos but only this one worked for me! :) In my case the system reserved partition was one with 99MB size and fat32 file system.

[martinoliva]

Best video ever, after a lot of tries of booting windows pc's this was the only one that actually worked for me!

[jedgr]

Thanks ! Although it did not work immediately, I figured out changing the reserved system letter's to Z worked for me ! Thank youuu

[Kazerex]

Your video was the only one to work!!! I seen so many

[mariogarces]

When i put Y to accept last command says not found is the last step

[ShubhamPatel-zwkj]

You are just amazing i have checked tons of tutorials but nothing worked and finally your video saved my life bro

[angelicafantuzzi]

I really want to thank you for this video, your programming skills are incredible, you saved my ssd. I tried to solve this error for like four days but nothing else worked. I'm really glad I didn't lose any programs or data or anything else. Didn't even need to clean install Windows. And I don't even know what you did to solve the problem but the only thing important is that it worked! Haha! Nice job, thanks a lot!

[iliketrains]

Thank you man, I was starting to get worried. Glad I found this video
