Just installed Manjaro 21.0, and am unable to boot into Windows. Normally, Windows would be detected and listed as a boot option, but that doesn’t even happen now.
What’s worse is, apparently fast boot was turned on, and now trying to boot-repair gives me the error that the Windows partition is still mounted.
Is there any way to fix this boot issue without having to get a Windows recovery disk from my OEM and reinstall everything?
- If you need dual-boot you can reactivate os-prober the easiest with the following command combination in a terminal:
echo GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false|sudo tee -a /etc/default/grub && sudo update-grub
Really only seems to find Linux-based options.
GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false

Warning: os-prober will be executed to detect other bootable partitions.
It's output will be used to detect bootable binaries on them and create new boot entries.
