I'd like a TBOSD or other script to create a BCD store

It would sure be great to have a TBOSD or other script to create a BCD store for a Windows partition that lacks one from within BootIt BM. There are times when I need to be able to boot from a partition, only to discover that it has no BCD. Creating one manually is a real chore, and if I can't boot, I can't use things like Visual BCD or the equivalent.

I've tried my hand at writing TBOSD scripts, but the documentation -- such as it is -- is confusing, so I never succeeded.

Does anyone know if such a script exists? I'd be happy to pay for it.

Thanks!

Do you have a BCD file stored somewhere? For ex. in another Windows installation?

Such a script does not exists, but I think we can make it.

Hi, Guru Eric! I am immensely grateful for all the hard work and excellent assistance you've offered me over the years! :)

Such a script would be so awesome! As are the current scripts TeraByte has provided. I'd happily pay again for BootIt BM if that would happen (I've long felt a bit guilty that I can still obtain updates for no cost over the decades).

So please let me know!


Thanks again!

The new osdtool can do the job.
