As the title states, EasyBCD is still griping about being in EFI mode after EasyRE has 'successfully' repaired the windows 8.1 boot.
Now, how do I go about making EasyBCD not gripe, and actually do what I need it to, ie allow me to boot to linux, or anything else for that matter, because I have paid for EasyRE twice now, due to the "EasyBCD and UEFI" support article claiming EasyRE could "convert your existing installation to be bootable in both UEFI/GPT and BIOS/MBR mode in-place".
Admittedly, one of those i my fault, I forgot I had bought it already, and have no Idea what I did with the disk image, however, if it had done the job in the first place, I would not have needed it again, and would not have purchased a second copy.
PS. just to head off the replies telling me to go read the EasyBCD UEFI support article, I already have, i took it's advice, disabled secure boot, enabled 'Legacy Only' boot mode, purchased and ran EasyRE, and still have this issue.
Also, this is the only issue I've had with EasyBCD since I started using it years ago. What baffles me, is that I've been running windows 8.1 and linux dual-booted on this UEFI machine for years, with non-legacy boot enabled, and EasyBCD used to work just fine, then I update to the latest version and it starts complaining at me about EFI being enabled.
