Thank you for sharing this! Worked like a charm for me. I got “BOOTMGR is missing” when rebooting after adding disk space to the system drive, by extending the system drive using Disk Management, on a virtual server running Windows Server 2008 R2.

This is fantastic. My problem was, that the server always bootet in the Windows Recovery Environment. Automatic fix gives no solution, but with

Bcdedit /export C:\BCD_Backup
ren c:\boot\bcd bcd.old
Bootrec /rebuildbcd

Windows stops booting the WRE and gives me the true reason. Someone has tried installing an old acronis version. I managed booting the server with renaming the driver file snapman.sys

Thanks again, now I can carless go to the new year party.
