Hello, when I start my Windows 10 laptop, I get an error message that says:
reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key
I hope you can help me because right now I can't do anything else.

    Hi,

    This question and error on computer startup comes up often.
    I invite you to read this answer: https://forums.commentcamarche.net/forum/affich-35414302-boot-device-not-found#1
    It is comprehensive.

    ~~

    Since a working computer is available: Use Media Creation on a valid computer to create an installation USB drive: https://www.microsoft.com/fr-fr/software-download/windows10ISO
    • Boot from it by changing the boot sequence and indicating the USB drive or DVD: How to boot the computer from USB drive
    • You will arrive at the Windows setup program.
    • Go to repair your computer (menu at the bottom left of the main page)
    • Advanced troubleshooting options
    • Command prompt
    • type diskpart and hit enter

    Give the results of the following commands:

    list disk
    sel disk 0
    list partition
    list volume
    exit


    Take a photo of the results and provide the results in a screenshot.

    And give the result of the command:
    bcdedit /v


    Take a photo of the results and provide the results in a screenshot.

      However, the bcdedit command doesn't work.
