needed this tday bro thanks

[@snowdog993]

I never thought in a million years I would forget how to use BCDedit correctly. My issue was I had a corrupted GPT partition that had something like 4 folders that were absolutely bad. Fortunately, I was able to restore back to MBR and get the system to boot. There were a few bad moments when I was pulling my hair, but I decided to just bypass the GPT boot entirely and use the drive with the MBR boot on it. That worked. I thought I was doing it right, but I was doing it thinking I had no MBR boot. So, my command was (for my sanity's sake..) BCDBOOT E:\Windows /s E: /f BIOS Then I put in my install CD and had the setup find NO profile at all, and told it to scan and I allowed it to repair. Came back and there were no errors and the repair was just allowing the system CD to get system back. Profile was restored and it was glorious! Thank you very much for helping out! It is appreciated.

I ended up not needing to convert my GPT to MBR. The BCD command was the piece I was missing. But I had to remove the /f argument to get windows to finally boot. So basically for me, it was simply setting the first two parameters only, and then nothing else on the command line. LIFE SAVER!!!

I can't see my system volume

[@Dnadhir]

can i use that program to convert and then: restart-bios- change from UEFI to legacy mode, and then run windows normally without going to command prompt ?

[@brainerstech]

Dear friend, As for as non os disk no may not need command prompt. but for os disk, half of the time it works without command prompt, but we can not confirm it. If it happens you need to get in to command prompt to fix it. Good Luck, and appreciate if you like the video and subscribe to my channel.

This actually worked however i only converted grom GPT to MBR and just used Macrium's Recovery Media to fix the boot problems since i had made it, before I realized the issue was that the PC simply couldnt boot UEFI despite having the option. All's well that ends well

Then I used Macrium Reflect's boot repair module from the Macrium Reflect rescue disk to automatically rebuild the master boot record. Thanks so much.

I discovered that disk genius can't convert a hard disk with more than four primary partitions.

[@brainerstech]

Brother...it is not disk genius limitation....that is the limitation of MBR itself...

[@OnionIlan]

diskgenius says that the partition parameters of the operating system have been changed and the sytem will become unstable will it be fine after i reinstall windows? and after that can i convert back to gpt?

[@brainerstech]

Friend - converting mbr to gpt or gpt to mbr, don’t delete data, but it could disturb boot setup, and if does i ve already told what to do in the video. In addition please take some time and fully watch these videos first, then I'm sure you will fix by yourself when there are boot issues. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nWKze62FZtyNiNU kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4aVmmNooL-IftE kzbin.info/www/bejne/m2LSf6ifnZZspac kzbin.info/www/bejne/boPHm6SVpKpmidE kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaumlKl8mbhjqKc Good luck and Please like and subscribe.

Bro - This is definitely possible without losing data. But I want you to fully watch the current video and other 2 videos below, its not because i need watch hours, you will you will get in to some expected errors, and when you do you need the knowledge/understanding of what you need to and what NOT to do. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nWKze62FZtyNiNU kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4aVmmNooL-IftE Good Luck, and appreciate if you like the video and subscribe to my channel.

Just watched your GPT to MBR video. I'm not quite sure where to find the BCDBOOT Command: as it's not mentioned on the video. What if my Windows file and OS file are all on c: drive? What would the bcdboot command look like?

[@brainerstech]

Brother - it is in the video description and i have also discussed about it in the video. any way i have given below the command, suppose you have both windows volume and system volume both are same then use C: in both the places. and ensure your C: is set as active partition. BCDBOOT C:\Windows /l en-us /s C: /f BIOS For better results please take some time to fully watch the video once. Good Luck, and appreciate if you like the video and subscribe to my channel.

[@That1Ray]

I want to ask, does this break your PC if it is using UEFI?

[@brainerstech]

Brother - To use UEFI you need GPT. Now question is why do you want to convert to MBR? If you booted for OS reinstall and its asking you to convert to MBR, you restart and start installation media in UEFI mode. If any other reason - pls add another new comment. (I don't get notified for existing comments)

[@UGPAIDGAMER]

Is there any big diff between gpt and MBR? And is there any pros and cons?

[@brainerstech]

Pls watch the video brother... Gpt is advanced and new. But for regular users both will have the same end user experience. Unless you want to have more number of partitions and large disk.

For Solution 1 (convert OS disk GPT->MBR) will a windows recovery disk generated from an activated & working installation work for this? I'm asking because I have a 2nd hand PC without original Win installation disk - which would have been Win8 I think - which now has legit Win10 installation.

[@brainerstech]

Bro - usually it does not disturb product key, but if you want to be safer, i recommend you to 1) Note down your product key: regedit Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SoftwareProtectionPlatform At the left panel note down BackupProductKeyDefault 2) create recovery disk/usb for your PC. If you have recovery disk then you no need to reenter product key. Good Luck, and appreciate if you like the video and subscribe to my channel.

[@falfield]

Nothing like doing it to learn...so I've had a go. Your recipe (GPT>MBR for boot disk) falls over at the BCD stage, which is sparsely-explained - in contrast to the rest of the video, which is en pointe. Also, and opening other possibilities for explaining the failure, there is A) discrepancy between your verbal description and the on-screen typing (localisation switch not used); and B) what you type does not correspond to the format the program itself uses as illustration (en-us vs us-en). Further, Diskgenius explicitly says it isn't to be installed on the disk on which conversion is to be attempted, but this seems to be what you have done. Sorry to sound critical (I'm not, I'm VERY appreciative of you tackling this tricky area) but for lack of critical details, you have snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. So I've set out what I've seen in detail so you can do a follow-up to address this if you wish. Thanks again for tackling one of the more tricky system problems.

So i thought to boot again into bootable usb windows installation media, and that booted me into installed Windows. Now everytime i wanted to boot into my installed Windows, i had to select usb mass storage device which actually has windows installation media but takes me to installed Windows. Even unplugging usb when using Windows gave me blue screen errors. The only way I could fix this crap was to convert MBR back to GPT using mini tool partition wizard and then boot into windows installation media and finally create gpt boot files which actually worked.
