thank you for your timeOK is there much data on the PC which is irreplaceable ?I would create a USB stick with a utility or two which "may" help with recovering the situation without having to re-install Windows and thus wiping everything, my first thought is to try and recreate the partition table and failing that try to recover what hopefully is still on the disk, of course that assumes that the disk is still readable , but I am more hopeful that is the case , but if we re-install Windows then that may overwrite what is still on there and we may not be able to recover anything worthwhile.

Ok that just went way over my head, sorry ☺️I don’t really have anything much on there that I am desperate to keep. I just want a working computer so that my son can do his schoolwork work on and I really can’t afford to buy a new pc during this difficult time.My IT skills are terrible, so if we can restore the pc, then great. If not, I’ll just be happy to get it working again.Thanks0

morning, let’s try a couple of things. First we need to go back to the command prompt in advanced options
next enter these 3 commands- bootrec /fixmbr
- bootrec /fixboot
- bootrec /rebuildbcd
