In this challenge, you will troubleshoot the startup and boot process. First, you will corrupt the Windows boot manager (bootmgr), and then you will repair bootmgr. Next, you will access advanced startup to start the virtual machine in safe mode, and then you will run the SFC utility to check/repair problems. Finally, you will reset the virtual machine back to defaults by using the Reset this PC option. Note: Once you begin a challenge you will not be able to pause, save, or return to your progress. Please ensure you have set aside enough time to complete the challenge before you start.
