Earlier today, I received the Inaccessible Boot Device error on my Alienware R15 laptop. Despite changing UEFI to legacy and attempting to load from a usb recovery drive, I couldn't fix anything. The laptop won't boot into any version of safe mode either. From what I have researched and tested, it isn't a hardware failure or bios configuration error, but Windows 10 is somehow not recognizing itself. I attempted to repair the boot record in the recovery environment, but when checking for Windows installations, it returned 0 installations recognized. I tried to follow the process where you essentially rename the bcd file and create a new one from scratch, yet for whatever reason, the bcd file is not located in the boot directory. I would prefer to not have to do a clean install or "upgrade" on top of the current installation, but are those my only options?
