i installed new windows .dll files manually to the appropriate windows folders to fix Windows Updater and on Reboot the Disk Volumes switched such that Volume C: Became Volume D: and Volume D: became Volume C:.On Noticing the error, i decided to run system recovery which made everything worst.Now the Command Prompt has a Volume X: which when i execute Diskpart, the volume(X:) has a 495GB labeled Disk 0: and the switched up Volumes C: and D: as Partitions of Volumes X:.

When i boot Windows 8.1 (pro) i get the Local Domain /Microsoft account login which i never got to set up.You are my last hope Guys.

How do you get around to fixing this??
