ERE Cannot Boot Into UEFI, Only MBR, Meaning It Can't Find My UEFI Partitions

Good afternoon.

I decided to use your "Easy Recovery Essentials for Windows" in a last-ditch attempt to recover by bricked "Windows VII Professional" sixty-four bit OS.

When I went into the BIOS menu to start the disc by loading my DVD optical disc drive first, it didn't give me an option to boot it as UEFI software. Instead, the only option that I was given was the Master Boot Record version, which loaded. When I loaded into the ERE run time environment and clicked the Automated Repair button, it did not detect my partitions and claimed that my "C" drive, which hosts the corrupted OS, was blank and had no partitions or data at all. This is in spite of the fact that the W7 OEM Installation Disc detects it (but cannot fix it), as does the "Disk Genius" software.

The TESTDISK command in the ERE Command Line did recognize something, and I tried running its diagnostics to seek an UEFI partition, but I am not sure what to do next.


Thank you for any assistance you may render.

Hello,

Even if EasyRE is booted in MBR mode, it will repair both UEFI and MBR mode Windows boot issues and will see/repair both MBR and GPT disks.
I am sending you a copy to a preview version of EasyRE that you might have better luck with (in a private message on the forums). Can you try it and let me know if it worked better for you?
