- The BCD architecture is a hierarchy composed of three basic components: stores, objects, and elements (see the figure below). BCDEDIT is a powerful tool to edit...
- BCDEdit basically has the same purpose as Bootcfg.exe on previous versions of Windows, but with two major improvements
- To create a new entry in the BCD store, use the following command: bcdedit /create {GUID}. Where {GUID} is a unique identifier for the new entry.

- You can use Bcdedit.exe to add, delete, edit, and append entries in the boot configuration data store.
- Type or copy-paste the following command, and hit the Enter key: bcdedit. In the output, find the identifier line for the entry you want to delete.
- The bcdedit command is used here to export the BCD store as a file: bcdbackup. There's no need to specify a file extension.

- The same applies for other bcdedit settings where you don't specify the exact GUID - for example to set the boot manager path you would quote {bootmgr}.
- In this article, we will show you how to use bcdedit to modify Windows startup. We will see the basic commands, BCD input identifiers, data types and possible values.
