Grub-probe: error: cannot find a GRUB drive for Microsoft/Boot/boot

Support

I’m not sure if it is related to the update, probably it’s just me, but after it I started to have this error in update-grub:

/usr/bin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a GRUB drive for Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi.  Check your device.map.

A grub entry for Windows is still created but it doesn’t work.

This is not an “ask for support” post. Just if anyone else can confirm/deny this. Thanks.

Edited: Ok. Keep walking, nothing to see… just me being dumb and forgetting that I had edited some os-prober file to make a test and now it was paying back :smiley:

Ok. I’ll make that, but as I stated in my post, I was not asking for help, I just wanted to confirm or not the problem. In my opinion it’s just better to delete the post, as it doesn’t help anybody.
