I have Toshiba Satellite L15W-B1302. I can’t start my computer. It says File:\EFI \MICROSOFT\BOOT\BCP. Error code: Oxc000014c. I need recovery disc or USB. But I don’t have them. How to fix my computer?
Is this a good question?

Alternative Info error messages. Your PC will probably display “Info: An error occurred while attempting to read the boot configuration data.” with File: as “\Boot\BCD”, but users reported others, such as:
File: \Windows\system32\config\system
Info: Windows failed to load because the system registry file is missing or is corrupt
Info: The Boot Configuration Data for your PC is missing or contains errors

Info: An error occurred while attempting to read the boot configuration data.
The Windows 8/10 info message looks like this:
Windows Recovery Environment
Your PC needs to be repaired

You'll need to use the recovery tools on your installation media. If you don't have any installation media (like a disc or USB device), contact your system administrator or PC manufacturer.
Causes of this Error
This error has been known to occur as a result of one or more of the following:
Cause 1: BCD is missing or corrupt
One of the most common causes of this error is the BCD that became missing or corrupt. That could happen because of disk write errors, power outages, boot sector viruses, or errors made while configuring the BCD manually.
Cause 2: File system integrity compromised
For the same reasons, the file system itself may become corrupt or damaged. That happens even more often if one turns off a PC while it is in the middle of writing crucial data to the boot sector.
Cause 3: System files are damaged
The system files may also become corrupt or damaged for the same reasons.
Fixing “0xc000014C” on Windows
Windows Setup CD/DVD Required!
Some of the solutions below require the use of the Microsoft Windows setup CD or DVD.

EasyRE will automatically find and fix many problems, and can also be used to solve this problem with the directions below.
