Shutdown process in Windows should be carried out properly. Whenever Windows is turned off due to power cut or similar factor instead of opting Shutdown option, you may face issues later, when you turn on it back. This article refers to one such issue we came around recently.
In this case, the system was plugged out forcefully and Windows will no longer boot then. It gives following error:
Recovery
Your PC couldn’t turn off properly

The operating system on your PC failed to turn off properly and needs to be repaired.
Error code: 0xc0000001
If you’re also experiencing this issue your Windows 10, you’ve already landed to right place for the solution. Here is what you can do to fix it.

C:
cd boot
attrib bcd -s -h -r
bootrec /rebuildbcd
NOTE: You have to substitute C: with your system root drive.

^^ Have you tried above mentioned steps?
We dont seem to have a boot drive, ie we try going to c:, but there is no c:\boot
We ran bootrec /rebuildbcd but it said it could not find any drives
We got this after Windows 1803.17133.73 tries to upgrade to 1803.17133.134.1
If we exit, it restarts and goes back to the 17133.73 … every time we try and reboot to apply the update, we get the error about being unable to turn off properly?
Any ideas?
