I have a Dell Inspiron 7373 2-in-1 which fails to boot. The built in diagnostics which is accessed by FN-Power key says it has a failed hardrive. Most of the data is synced to the cloud - but there are a few changes which have not made it.
I can start the windows 10 advanced recovery and get to the CMD prompt where I find I am in X:. I can see the X:\USERS\Public but nothing else. Is the X: drive just a renamed boot drive where the user data is stored or is it some special partition? Is there anyway to use this X: drive to look for my Un-synched files? Is my actual user data hidden or is it on a different drive and lost?
I could not get any windows 10 OS GUI running the only boot process which I could get to work is access to the CMD prompt. The system prompts for a recovery key for many of the operations none of which work. I retrieved the key online from the windows Live acccount.
