Ran bootrec commands on windows 10 laptop and now it shows whole 1tb (931gb) as free
Posted: 13 Feb 2022, 13:01
Greetings,
(with heavy heart
)
Problem In Short: After an update, Windows 10 home single language edition showed “Bad System Config Info” error (BSOD). In a state of panic I googled this so called “stop code” and stumbled on to the following commands, which I ran (like I would die if I don’t):
Now, my whole 1tb (931gb) hdd is shown empty by diskpart. See disk 0 in the following image. Though, testdisk does show all deleted or lost partitions with labels (see third image), which is awesome. Only problem is i can't figure out how to get it back. Please help.

My attempts with testdisk so far:
1. I tried Analyze option but its taking 10min or more for 1%, i stopped at 29% .



2. Then i tried Advanced options, where i learn that data in all partitions are good, except EFI Partition which is corrupt.

It would be great if someone could help me in putting it all together like it was before, that is if possible. If not please let me know. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
