I need a Windows 10 1709 repair disk!
I attempted to restore an Acronis True Image 2018 file but something went awry and now I cannot boot into Windows 10 at all. After a lot of attempts the current situation is that I get the message 'the drive that Windows is installed on is locked, please unlock and try again'. How can I obtain a repair file to help me fix this problem? I have 2 laptops, both runnning validated Win 10 1709, I'm currently using the spare system. I do have earlier versions of repair disks but I obviously forgot about ensuring I had a current one.
I am able to restore a Macrium Reflect image and that reports that it was successful but when I reboot the system just comes up with the language and keyboard selection. It has beea long time since I needed to delve into the 'guts' of 10 so I am unsure what to do next.
Ideally, I would like to be able to get my C:\Windows back but I'm not sure how. When I tried the Reset/Recovery/Repair installation options it tells me I have two Windows 10, both on volume 4 so I guess one of those is not needed. but which?!
Help greatly appreciated as I'm way too old for this!!!
Thank you.
