    You have two System partitions there should be one.

    I ran these two commands above.

    /scanos returned

    [1] C:\Windows

    /rebuildbcd option failed due to error noted above.




    bootrec /scanos
    bootrec /rebuildbcd

    that's because I have dual boot disks.. I've had it working for well over a year.

    I created multiple boot entries with bcdedit and never had issues

    Even do you dual boot there should be one System partition you need to delete the one without W: drive letter.

    The 2 disks were clones, both had system partition on them, one was an exact mirror of the other. EFI, everything, was a clone. It worked/booted for a long time until this.

    Maybe I should try Macrium Reflect as described here?
    Can you shed some light on this?

    Even Macrium Reflect can't help resolve the issue because single drive have two System partitions the Bootrec wont work because of two System partitions.

    No, it's not a single drive, these are two different SSDs in the system.

    I could remove the other one (the second one) without too much trouble and it will still probably generate the same error.

    I agree... You Have To Remove System Partition from Disk 2
    But really should delete all partitions from disk 2 and format as single partition....

    Then open command prompt and type>
    bcdboot C:\Windows /s W: /f UEFI

    W -
    being the drive letter assigned to system partition on disk 1

    then reboot PC with disk 1 selected in BIOS as primary boot disk
