Adding a Windows bootloader entry for DSRM

1. Open a command prompt.
2. Copy the DSRM entry from the Boot Configuration Data (BCD) to a GUID by typing the following command:
   bcdedit /copy {default} /d “Directory Services Restore Mode”

   A message similar to the following example appears:

   The entry was successfully copied to {00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}

   where 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 is the GUID of the new entry.

3. Set the safeboot option for the bootloader entry in the BCD by typing the following command:
   bcdedit /set {00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000} safeboot dsrepair
   where 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 is the GUID.
4. Reboot the computer, and select the option to boot into DSRM.
