Windows swapped drive letters after restart

Habemus · ‎12-02-2022

After I restarted my computer, I was presented with a bsod of recovery, Error code: 0xc0000185, basically telling me to reinstall windows with a usb, wich I tried but I was presented another error wich said “Unable to update computer startup configuration”, I have looked at the drives with diskpart from cmd, and I saw that the drives letter were swapped( I have two drives, an ssd nvme m.2, the C: drive, and a 1tb hard disk, the 😧 drive) the hard disk have the C: and the ssd has the D:, I tried to see if there was a way to re-swap the letters, but after the restart they were back to the wrong ones.

I have Intel Rapid Store Technology drivers, wich they were pre-installed, and the bios set to uefi, unfortunately I couldn’t find the option to switch it to legacy.

hi

what you can try!
format hard disk hdd
remove it (or remove it to format it with another computer)
Leave SSD only, then install windows
check, then if ok, replace the HDD, and format it to assign it a letter
