Q: Bootcamp missing after update to El Capitan

Threre was a 100GB bootcamp partition and a 400GB OSX partition before updating from Mountain Lion to El Capitan.

 

here's the output of diskutil list after the update:

I may have made the mistake of rebuilding the directory of Macintosh HD with DiskWarrior in an attempt to fix this issue.

 

testdisk Quick search yields:

Selecting any one of the 6174 MS Data [Boot] entries yields:

Couldn't find any other entries containing SVI. Is there hope?

iMac, OS X El Capitan (10.11.1), iMac (24-inch, Mid 2007)

    I also have the El Capitan no more bootable bootcamp problem.

    My story is that I had previously resized the partition, adding the OS X open space into the windows volume using mini partition tool.  Worked great until upgrade.  You'll see the original test disk output at the top, then I tried your recipe, but it only created a non-bootable 466gb partition.  So I tried it again using the starting sector 147617792 and ending sector 1953523711 and that won't boot either.  You'll see the result at the bottom of the testdisk output.

    I can fyi still see the bootcamp files from the OS X side.

    What does Testdisk Quick Search show? Your previous screen shot shows the following possible layout.

     

    kitayzi-ntfs-1.png

     

    In this table, notice the negative 620MB offset is almost the same as Recovery HD. You need to look at every MS Data entry of the size 195112953 sectors Testdisk output.

    Every one of the 195112953 entries yield "Cannot open file system".

    Your MBR shows...

    with a 50+GB gap. Is your Testdisk output from a Quick Search or a Deeper Search?

    What type of changes did DiskWarrior make? We can try a Deeper Search and see if it finds any interesting entries.

    Diskwarrior initially gave the Mac HD 9/10, then brought that to 10/10, reporting issues having to do with file size reporting. It also increased partition size by about 100MB or so.
