Any Suggestions? Thanks for the detailed guide. I am getting the same error only difference being I am using Win 7. In my case the windows Installation media is not seeing my windows partition. On clicking repair conputer the box is blank wheras ideally it should be showing the current installation path of Windows What should I do? In Linux I am able to access the win partition. Could this be due to wrong setting of boot flag?

I had actually installed Linux first and then Win 7. Both of them are in 2 different hard disks. When I installed Win 7 , I think the EFI folder used by linux was shared by windows and a separate partition was not created.

So in this case , what should I do? They must exist. Thank you sooo much. I thought I had to do a full restore! You totally saved my ass. By the way, this happened after a Linux install with dual boot Kali Linux. Thank you very much for your help!

Please any help world be appreciated, trying to get my computer back up and going without having to wipe all my personal data..

The Requested system device cannot be found. Im on day 4 right now I just bought a 2tb HD to xcopy all my data from my c: drive incase I screw my computer up further. Im a complete novice to CMD. I have no idea if my system is uefi or what..

I know there is a boot option on my bios screen that shows my dvd drive as uefi and when I boot from it, it takes me right back to my bios screen and I have to choose to boot from my other option witch is my dvd drive again without the uefi part on the listing.

At this point I have posted this on 5 different forums and zero replys to the posting ugh… I have watched countless youtube videos on this and im just not understanding what is missing … kinda in the dark at the moment. Then I found this site — problem fixed. This was because I had the wrong drive letter for the Windows dive.

Correction to my comment on March 30th. Sorry for any confusion. I have a windows 10 which will not bootup probably due to misconfigured bootloader.

Thank you very much for this tutorial, it really has saved me after I broke the root of my surface pro 4 when trying to getting rid of Phoenix os who has left behind root problems after uninstallation.

I decided to go on whith the procedure anyway and eventually recovered the Windows Boot Manager option. Was quite confused about the solutions provided and i was getting errors because I was looking at wrong partitions. Never knew there is something called EFI partition too. This article helped a lot and find the exact partition which i should work with when all other articles didnt mention about EFI and how to find them in the Volume.

So what must I do? After visiting and trying many suggestions on multiple websites, blah, blah.. My EFI boot drive fixed and Windows boot back up. I cannot thank you enough! I thought I was going to have to backup and reinstall his hard drive before he got home! This was PURE genius-ry! This kept my sanity and above all, helped me with a very difficult situation —.

Now this is the one i am looking for. The way of solving this problem is too much great and it worked well for me and i hope it worked for all the peoples. Beware if you have optane on a gigabyte board, there is no solution.

Reinstalling is mandatory. I dual boot win7 and 10, unplugging the drives is required when going between OSs. Otherwise win7 will see your win10 drive, but not the optane, and it will see an incomplete array and attempt to repair it, obliterating your install in the process. A bcd repair or manual reentry is impossible because the RAID is not visible to the system in recovery modes. It sees 2 separate drives, one with your files and the seemingly empty but not really empty optane drive, where the meta is held.

Are you saying that there is no way to fix this on the Intel Optane? We have to clean install Win 10 all over again? Absolute goddamn legends, saved me a week of rebuilding the system. Tried all the described scenarios to fix. Win Immensly helpful. This article is fantastic. Thank you deeply to your whole team, Manny.
