Fixmbr Command Syntax

The command takes the following form:

The device_name parameter designates the drive location that a master boot record will be written to. If no device is specified, the master boot record writes to the primary boot drive.

Fixmbr Command Examples

Two examples of the command illustrate its usage.

In the above example, the master boot record writes to the drive located at \Device\HardDisk0.

In this example, the master boot record writes to the device supporting your operating system. If you have a single installation of Windows installed, which is normally the case, running the command in this way is usually the right way to go.

The bootcfg, fixboot, and diskpart commands are often used with the fixmbr command.
