Edit: for others coming here with similar issues follow this guide that already exists Assuming you can't force the UEFI to boot to your drive, you're missing your EFI partition and also Windows Boot manager. Before you do this, if you care about your files, I'd plug the SSD into another computer as an extra drive and copy any files off that you need. This way, if the steps below go wrong, you'll have the important stuff and can just reinstall Windows. Boot your PC from a Windows installation disc or recovery disk. Hit “Shift + F10” simultaneously to enter Command Prompt. Input the command lines below to shrink a partition to get unallocated space. You're going to want to pick the biggest partition in this case. diskpart list disk select disk x ( x represents the sequence number o the disk where an EFI partition is required ) list partition select partition n ( n represent the sequence number of the partition to be shrinked ) shrink desired = 500 ( shrink the partition by 500MB ) Now, you can create an EFI system partition by using the unallocated space with the command lines below. create partition efi size = 200 format quick fs = fat32 label =” system ” create partition msr size = 1128 Once the 2 partitions are created, use the commands below to install bootloader and other necessary apps. exit ( exit diskpart ) bootrec / fixboot bcdboot c : \Windows / s b : / f all Needless to say, there's a (small) chance you'll lose everything during the partition shrink. Here's my source for this . I've done this stuff myself, but referenced this guide for all the commands etc.
Hey there, thanks for reaching out. I saw your message and understand what you're going through. I tried to simplify the situation: you had a few partitions with specific sizes, but when you attempted to create a new partition using the MSR size, it failed. You mentioned thinking about space constraints and then resizing further, but the error persisted. If you can share the exact German error text or more details about your drive setup, it would help me give more targeted advice.
It seems you're already using a system partition. Proceed with the next command to fix the boot issue.
You're facing issues with creating the second partition and your recent commands aren't being recognized. It seems you might need to close DiskPart before running further steps. The current behavior suggests checking available DISKPART options carefully.
It seems we both got confused. You mentioned creating a single partition, but it appears it already exists. The next step is correcting the partition. When entering commands in DiskPart, you should exit it first. I've updated the instructions to reflect this.
Proceeding through each issue step by step. The system accepts commands, but you face an "Acces Denied" message during the bootrec fix. You're currently in the "X:\sources" directory. Whether you need a specific drive or folder depends on your setup—check if the required files are present there.
Other commands executed without issues. The same "Access Denied" message persists for that specific case.
