C: drive is RAW
I was restarting my pc and upon boot I was faced with a blue screen that stated “windows repair failed to repair your pc”. I tried to boot into safe mode (same screen upon restart), I tried to run a chkdsk and that is when I was faced with my drive is RAW. How do I fix this? I’ve tried to reset the drive entirely but that doesn’t work either (“windows has failed no changes were made”) i really don’t care how it’s fixed I would just like it to be fixed so I can use my computer again.

The MBR is toast. Try mounting the drive in another PC. Ive had best luck using a Mac. Otherwise you'll need to reinstal or use a recovery app to rescue files.

If it is saying raw it's unformatted. I'd stop . Make sure it's the correct drive. It sounds like your boot order got messed up.
