OK, here we go. The first couple of pics are where I was trying to see where I was.
assign letter=b failed because (I think) because it was already assigned as B.
But then the backup failed and I can't see why.
I need a Windows 10 1709 repair disk!

The drive letter was supposed to be confirmed.
If it is labeled it cannot be labeled again.
Continue with step #12
Then reboot
Report results into the thread.
If it works you are set.
Proceed to the reg backup if it fails.
If the reg backup fails there is 1 more method.

Reg Backup:
I'm so sorry zbook, I made another stupid error, I was going to call it Mike Backup but didn't, rush of blood to the head!
I thought I should let you know rather than blundering on.

Please use this link for boot recovery.
Check the drive with HD Tune or HD Sentinel

So do I abort the reg backup or can I recover from my error? I am downloading the 64 bit iso now anyway.
I noticed that the disk geometry is all wrong on my hard drive, a number of the partitions are wrongly named but I assume this can be corrected when I have a working system using Admin Tools\Disk Management?
Thanks
I just burnt Win14393PESE_x64 ISO v170116 but on booting my system it came up as what appears to be a normal Windows disk, offering all the usual options but nothing to indicate the layout on the webpage.
I can't see anything on it that will do anything different?Last edited by bertie11; 21 Mar 2018 at 09:02.

Hi.
Just wanted to pop in and make a suggestion.
@zbook; what do you think about approaching it from another angle?
OP says he has a Macrium image. What about installing W10 fresh on an unallocated drive (delete all partitions during custom install) - let Windows create all the partitions, etc. needed. Then boot into Kyhi's recovery media, or Macrium media, and for a restore, grab the C partition ONLY in the backup image and drag it down over the new C partition to restore that? I know the procedure works - we've had several people do it here.
The only thing that would worry me is the state of the Macrium image. I would certainly verify it before I'd go taking my internal drive down to bare metal.

Want to Point out
the Diskpart version is 6.3.9600
which is the Windows 8.1 version
OP also has a 10gb Recovery image partition
also has a windows folder
a windows.old folder
a windows10 upgrade folder
if OP has a macrium or acronis complete system image - I would suggest a restore to a clean disk
or just do a clean Installation of windows 10
would be most helpful if he could boot Win10PESE Media

Download my ISO
Mount ISO
Copy ISO contents to a FAT32 Formatted USB
Boot your problem PC from that USB Media....
That way you can SEE via explorer your files...
I also readyour otherthis thread..
You have a WINDOWS folder and a Windows.old folder
the WINDOWS folder was created on March 18
Rename the "Windows" folder to "windows.sav"
rename windows.old folder to windows
then repair your BCD...
You would be best served by creating this rescue media......
