I've been wanting to get back to Windows 11 after trying out Ubuntu, but now during installation, it can't detect my main partition. I've done a lot to troubleshoot this, like switching the file system from ext4 to NTFS, updating the BIOS, and disabling the VMD controller. I even attempted to install Intel Rapid Storage Technology drivers, but encountered an error. I also can't change the RST to AHCI settings. It's been almost a month and I really need some help getting this sorted out. By the way, I'm using an MSI Thin 15 B13UC (MS-16R8) laptop.

Before diving into fixes, make sure you've backed up all your important data—changing system settings can be risky. Are you reinstalling Windows 11 directly or reverting to a previous setup? Also, did you format the drive when you installed Linux, or did you set it up side by side with Windows? That could affect how partitions are recognized.
It sounds like you've been troubleshooting a lot! From what you've mentioned, how did you install Linux? If you went with a full format of your main disk, that could be why Windows isn't seeing the partition. You might need to create a new partition using Windows installation media. Have you tried booting from a USB and accessing the partition management options there?
