Hi,
This is a crosspost from this thread: https://www.sysnative.com/forums/wi...ying-to-troubleshoot-windows-8-1-startup.html

I have a windows 8.1 machine doing an infinite automatic repair loop. I am able to get into the recovery environment and the disk seems fine. Have been able to back the entire disk up externally both via robocopy and disk image and am now trying to troubleshoot the root cause of the infinite startup loop.

When I disable automatic recovery using bcdedit, I get a message on boot saying '0xc000000f Windows failed to load because the NLS data is missing, or corrupt.'

Does anyone know any mechanisms for troubleshooting this type of boot failure? No boot logs are generated in boot logging mode. Hard disk has been chkdsk /f successfully and as mentioned all files were copied from the disk fine. I am trying to avoid reinstalling.

Thanks!
