Bcdedit not found

Hello,

when I use the bcdedit command, the console returns:

Unable to open the boot configuration data store.
The specified file is not found.

Yet I do have the bcdedit.exe file in C:\windows\system32.

Does anyone have an idea, please?
I’m trying to disable the unsigned drivers check with bcdedit /set nointegritychecks ON but I can’t…

Thanks in advance.

Configuration: Windows 7 / Firefox 16.0

    hi :

    Are you running the command prompt as an administrator?

    What is the active partition? Is it hidden (that's normal)?

    (The one containing "?:\Boot\BCD" (BCD is the file that bcdedit processes) ...)

    Yes, I do open cmd as an admin.

    I have an SSD where my C partition is located, and a HDD where my "system reserved"(marked as active) partition, my D partition, and my Linux are located.

    Thank you for your response.
