so yesterday I changed from Linux Mint to Manjaro with Gnome and wanted to just remake my grub config. Sadly grub does not find my Windows Boot.

Output from lsblk:

sdb                                                                         
├─sdb1
│    ntfs         SystemReserved
│                       01D50D5FDB172900                                    
├─sdb2
│    ntfs         SYSTEM
│                       01D50D78773A8C60                                    
└─sdb3
     ntfs               01D50D7891E5C9D0

Edit: os-prober is also installed, but yields no results!

Can you guys help me (Grub worked before with Mint and Windows DualBoot)

  • Have you tried booting a Windows disk to get to a Command Prompt? Is it UEFI or other? Windows Command Prompt __bcdboot C:\Windows__ where C:\Windows is your partition for Windows. – vssher Feb 12 '20 at 13:30
  • How do I distinguish between UEFI and other here? – Avocari Feb 16 '20 at 08:36
  • Which ever is the largest hard disk partition I would imagine. You might want to use Microsoft's __Diskpart__. At at Windows Command prompt type "Diskpart" it will open with a prompt. Type __select disk 0__ then type _List partition_ that might tell you which partitions Windows is on. If It does not, type __List volume__ it __should__ be the 2nd partition on the hard drive, List Volume should give you a drive letter also, if they exist. – vssher Feb 16 '20 at 23:24

You need to mount your Windows Partition first!

If this is not working try to install ntfs-3g with sudo pacman -S ntfs-3g and remount your Windows partition.

Then try sudo update-grub
