[SOLVED] Phoenix OS

[Ali163]

So i Installed Phoenix OS on my Dell Vostro 3468 64bit , using exe installer, but couodnt get the dual boot screen on start up so went into bios, selected the grub file manually and made it the only boot option so i would get both windows and phoenix boot option. it worked fine after then. Until one day my windows didnt boot and instead advanced windows startup repair startrd and it said it cant correct the problem. I tried everything but to no avail and then disabled advanced startup repair thru cmd. It showed me error then that "windoes cant start cuz the file is either missing or corrupted /efi/phoenixOS/boot/boot64. efi".
any solutions for this problem?

have you tried asking on here: http://bbs.phoenixstudio.org/en/

I know how to fix BCD errors that relate to Win 10 but thats wanting files associated with Phoenix OS and they might be best place to start to see whats gone wrong.

it seems asking on ubuntu forums might get you somewhere - https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2356507

there doesn't seem to be a lot about fixing that file.

I can help if you just want to get info off PC or we could figure out how to remove that entry from bootloader - is os on same drive as windows or different?

os is on the same device as windows, i think i can access all the windows files from phoenix os, cuz i can boot into phoenix os. But i dont care about phoenix os, so if we can remove it from bootloader it might help, but i dont know how to do that.

I am trying to work that out myself

I can find ways to remove it from inside windows, which doesn't help if windows won't boot

You will need a win 10 installer to do next tip
On another PC, download the Windows 10 media creation tool and use it to make a win 10 installer on USB
boot from installer
on screen after languages, choose repair this pc, not install.
choose troubleshoot
choose advanced
choose command prompt
See if this helps - Follow this: https://www.lifewire.com/how-to-rebuild-the-bcd-in-windows-2624508

you might want to backup any windows files onto USB or hdd as a clean install of windows is one way I can think of getting rid of it otherwise

okay so i tried it but it didnt work, but i found another thing, i wanted to ask you if it can be done. from cmd if i use bcdedit/enum all command, then it lists the corrupted file under windows bootloader section. can i delete it by using bcdedit/ delete command?

Download and create Windows Installation USB/DVD, and make sure you can boot with it. Then you can play as long as you want with your BCD store - if you eff it up, you can boot installation media, and repair boot.

i would just copy anything off drive you want to keep and clean install win 10. And if you must put phoenix back on again, maybe find instructions so it doesn't mess up the win 10 boot data.
