      Never put win and lin boot loaders in the same partition...big mistake, as you now know. Use two separate boot partitions, and for win and one for lin. interestingly, you can tell lin where you want it to put the boot loader.

    Really helpful info. I watched your video of fixing OEM/MBR partition as I might deleted one and then followed that video but I messed with either MBR or GRUB in my dual boot OS laptop. So, it was showing me ‘missing operating system’ error but then this video helped me fix it and now life is normal. I wish I could know this tool earlier to help lot of my friends in fixing issues with boot. Amazing video :)

    When you dual boot Windows and Linux install Linux in a separate partition. I stall the grub in the linux partition, don't install grub in windows. Then install Easy BCD in windows, this way you will have two separate OS and one will not harm the other.

    My problem is normal but weird. I have a tri-boot with win 10, 11, and Linux. I did probably the bad thing which is lazily I used the installer to accomplish shrinking and creating the vacant space on a separate partition where Win 10 resided. Now, I can access all three systems. Success. But not exactly. It takes two tries to get into Win 10 from the grub menu. Win 11 no problem. It's annoying to boot twice, but it must be something easily fixed, or not. Help!?

      I don't have problems with either boot loader. Windows will typically only overwrite grub on Feature Updates, but I generally have these locked down to about every 18 months on a Windows PC as I delay them, because they are usually a dumpster fire on launch. Also, you can just add a Linux entry into the Windows Bootloader, as you don't have to use grub.

    My config:
    windows is on a separate SATA SSD drive, nothing else touches it ... ever. Linux is on another drive, which can see windows via grub, but windows can't ever see Linux, so I am save :D
    I run Fedora (primary) on a super fast nvme, Manjaro on another old spinning drive which can see Fedora and windows in turn, so I can boot windows from Linux grub either way from both Fedora and Manjaro.
    IMO, bottom line is to never mix windows linux bootloaders on the main windows drive, that means never let windows be in charge of booting another OS, then you'll live a happy trouble free life.

      There is good music-production software on Linux too. Gaming is hit or miss, I play the games on Linux when I can (without sacrificing performance in a relevant way, I don't tolerate the FPS going all over the places or stutter) and on Windows when I have to. Some games don't run because of DRM (ridiculous!) and of course you have the problem with anti-cheat engines. For me the hardware (5700 XT) still is not properly supported on Linux unless it changed with the updates of a few days ago, once I install SC2 on Linux I will find out.

    Does this problem occur if both OS's are on separate SSDs or just if both OS's are on the same SSD?

    I'd love to use the rescue grub, but it may not fix what's broken which is a configuration problem outside the grub loader. A question I've been asking myself is what is happening between the 1st and 2nd try in entering Windows 10 that isn't happening on the first try. Is it an element of time, or something that is engaged after the 1st try that windows corrects-or linux corrects?

    even a newbie knows to install a clean version of windows first THEN INSTALL LINUX
    what do i do if i already installed linux after a clean install of windows and it was working fine for 6 months and lately i noticed i forgot about a 30 gb of unallocated space on my nvme boot drive and decided to triple boot another linux onto that space and it seems to install, Pure Os in this case but when i reboot except for the 1st time it alwasy just goes to the original windows/linux dualboot menu with no option for my newly installed pureos?

    I did something silly and triple booted. Zorin and windows on 1 disk and another linux on 2nd disk. Tried linux boot repair, various sudo commands and lots of booting using the live usb of linux when both failed.
    Eventually i went nuclear and re-installed windows on the other disk and deleted the linux since i had nothing important on them. Surprisingly i just added the entry using EasyBCD!
    I wonder if your way would have worked. I might have to find out if you don't answer.
    Cause you see i want to delete that windows I installed for the purpose of getting my original windows booting again. Will this make my original windows stop booting?

    Man, this tool is niice. But it didn't work to get back my Windows 10 bootloader. Same black screen 0xc00000f error. This happened after installing kali on a seperate hard-drive. Tried windows recovery media but I either did it wrong or something. Can't find the BCD to rebuild at all. Confirmed both Kali-Linux and Windows systems are running GPT formatted systems. That means they're both UEFI, correct?

  • @davidg4512
    @davidg4512 5 лет назад +1

    First of all, nobody should be using bios anymore and everyone should strictly use uefi. Windows will NEVER override your boot partition if you install Linux properly. If you are dual booting, install windows first. After that, install Linux. When installing Linux, make sure you make a separate partition for uefi and make sure your Linux install uses that for its bootloader. After that, set the uefi settings to use that Linux uefi as it's first device drive. You will get into grub where you can boot into windows or Linux. Leave the beginning of your drive to windows and let it do its thing.
