Re: Inaccessible Boot Device
Thanks for your response. Sorry for the delay, I did respond but on review I must have done something wrong because the post is not showing. To answer your questions:- When I tried the repair it did not work, I do have a recovery usb stick and can get to the command prompt. As I mentioned in the OP I have reinstalled Win 11 from scratch and everything works, although I can still restore the failed system on a spare disk from the backups if you have any suggestions on how to return it to working order.3.1KViews0likes3CommentsInaccessible Boot Device
I upgraded from "Windows 10 to 11 via the auto update offer at the end of Jan-22, all worked fine up until last week when I tried to boot up following a regular shut down I got a blue screen with "Inaccessible Boot Device". The offered repair did not help and the recovery disk did not offer a boot to safe mode and nothing else helped. I then tried to do a system restore from an Aoemi backup booted via a USB stick, this completed with out errors but the system still would not boot, same problem. Fearing a hardware failure on the NVMe disk, I tried to restore to one of the SATA hard disks on the PC, again this completed without error but it would still not boot. To cut a long story short I carried out a new build of Win 11 on the original NVMe disk and reinstalled everything and it is working fine again. I am obviously worried that it could happen again so my question is what could have caused the problem and why did none of the backups work (I had 1 system and 4 incrementals).
