The Boot Configuration Data file doesn’t contain valid information for an operating system
Your PC/Device needs to be repaired. The inner error of this issue is “bfsvc warning failed to remove duplicate object from bootmgr display order“. On screen error is “The Boot Configuration Data file doesn’t contain valid information for an operating system”. Microsoft suggests using some recovery tool which is completely unnecessary as it’s really easy to understand and solve the issue. My client was using Microsoft Intune and system was requiring BitLocker key to move to next screen while loading Microsoft Windows.
