attrib c:\boot\bcd -h -r -s > path not found

Question

If bootrec /scanos displays > Total identified windows installations: 0

that indicates that there are no additional editions of Windows outside the component store?

If bootrec /rebuild displays > total identified windows installation: 0

that indicates that there are no additional editions of Windows outside the component store?

Using diskpart the EFI partition was labeled with assign letter=b

bootrec /fixmbr displayed the operation completed successfully

bootrec /fixboot displayed the operation completed successfully

bcdedit /export C:\bcdbackup displayed the operation completed successfully

So attrib c:\boot\bcd -h -r -s displayed path not found

1) How does the path not found get corrected?

For C:\dir
it displayed these in the directory of C:\
24,576 bcdbackup
24,576 bcd_backup
4,569 test run bootrec rebuildbcd.txt

how come the attrib c:\boot\bcd -h -r -s displays path not found?
Is this a syntax issue?  If so what is the proper syntax?

How may times can the bootrec rebuildbcd be ran?
How many times can attrib c:\boot\bcd -h -r -s be ran?

If x:\sources>bcdboot C:\windows /s c: displays boot files successfully created does this step supersced the attrib command or does the attrib command still need to be run?

So how do you fix attrib C:\boot\bcd -h -r -s so that it has a proper path?

This is on a clean install (now about 30 days old)

This computer is being used for practice so that the problem on a computer with failed boot can be fixed.
