how does windows boot

 Fallback bootloader

most bios have fallback bootloader as 

/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI


Windows Boot Manager


\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi
 

Boot Configuration Data


\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\BCD


Windows Boot Manager BCD


identifier              {bootmgr}
device                  partition=\Device\HarddiskVolume1
path                    \EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi
description             Windows Boot Manager

Bcdedit /set {bootmgr} device partition=s:     // system partition
Get-WmiObject Win32_LogicalDisk
bcdedit /store bcd-template /enum all
Bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \efi\microsoft\boot\bootmgfw.efi
Bcdedit /set {fwbootmgr} displayorder {bootmgr} /addfirst

Windows Boot Loader BCD


identifier              {9f25ee7a-e7b7-11db-94b5-f7e662935912}
device                  partition=C:
path                    \Windows\system32\winload.efi
description             Microsoft Windows Server
locale                  en-US
inherit                 {bootloadersettings}
osdevice                partition=C:
systemroot              \Windows

Bcdedit /default {9f25ee7a-e7b7-11db-94b5-f7e662935912}
The device element specifies the partition that contains the boot application.     
The osdevice element specifies the partition that contains the system root.

Bcdedit /set {default} path \windows\system32\winload.efi

Windows Memory Tester BCD



identifier              {memdiag}
device                  partition=\Device\HarddiskVolume1
path                    \boot\memtest.exe
description             Windows Memory Diagnostic

Bcdedit /set {memdiag} path \efi\microsoft\boot\memtest.efi

rsa encryption

 choose two large  prime number p (prime 1) and q (prime 2)   n = p x q , where n is called the modulus for encryption and decryption   φ = ( p - 1) x ( q -1) is called Euler's totient function for n= pq For a given positive integer n, Euler's totient function ϕ(n) is defined as the number of positive integers less than or equal to n that are coprime (i.e., share no common factors) with n. ϕ( n ) = n ∏ p ∣ n ( 1 − 1 p )     \phi(n) = n \prod_{p \mid n} \left(1 - \frac{1}{p}\right)   p ∣ n means that p p divides n , and is a prime factor greater than 1  i  n    example , n=2*3=6 with factors f=1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5,6 factors Two numbers are coprime if their greatest common divisor (GCD) is 1 here find gcd(f,n)=1  only 1 and 5 are coprime with 6  φ =1*2 =2   choose e less  than φ , such that  e is co prime with φ , ie  e has no common factor with φ except 1 mathematically : gcd ( e , φ ...
