How can I fix the 'Boot configuration data missing or contains errors' issue?
Asked by

After updating my BIOS, I encountered the error message "Boot configuration data missing or contains errors" (0xc000000f), which prevents my system from booting. I created a recovery drive and managed to boot from it by using the bootrec /rebuildbcd command. However, if I set the boot order to use my SSD instead of the recovery drive, I get the same error. Currently, I can only boot using the recovery drive. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can boot normally without relying on the recovery drive?

Have you tried turning it off and on again? Sometimes a simple reboot can clear up the issue.

Reinstalling the OS could be a solution too. I faced similar issues when I was dual booting Linux with Windows; it usually had to do with my swap space settings.

You might want to try resetting your BIOS settings to see if that helps. Make sure that your OS drive is selected correctly in the BIOS settings as well.
