How to Restore Windows Boot Manager After Installing Ubuntu on a Separate SSD?

Asked By CoolCactus92 On

I recently installed Ubuntu on a separate SSD, and now it seems like the Windows Boot Manager is missing. I tried using boot-repair, but all it did was make GRUB appear with just Ubuntu listed in it. Is there a way to fix this and get my Windows Boot Manager back?

Just a thought – do you know if the Windows Boot Manager is actually missing, or is it more like GRUB isn't detecting it? Double-check your SSD setup and ensure everything is plugged in correctly. If Windows doesn't appear in GRUB after running the command, you might need to look into reinstalling the bootloader.

It sounds like your Windows Boot Manager might just be hidden, rather than completely gone. Have you tried running `sudo update-grub` in your terminal? Sometimes GRUB needs a little nudge to recognize other operating systems. You might be able to see Windows listed after that.
