Clover doesn't detect my Windows Install #65

Closed ghost closed 2 months ago

ghost commented 2 months ago

Hello, before I think of reinstalling Windows (which I already customized and downloaded what I wanted installed in), I was wondering if there is anything I could check so Clover detects my Windows installation. If I run the "STATUS" option in the Clover-Toolbox, I believe I do see the Windows Installation:

However, when I restart, I get only the SteamOS option image

I setup the regkey for the time and bcdedit command as well. I tried re-installing the script, but no luck. I run Windows 11 on a 512 microSD and selected the Windows To Go option in Rufus and pretty sure GPT was selected since that is the default option and the only thing I changed was the Windows To Go dropdown. Any help would be appreciated, looks like a great little addition to my Steam Deck!

Windows to Go sdcard is not supported anymore.

Thank you, I was reading the troubleshooting, but didn't see the "What's New" section. I just don't want to partition my SSD or whatever. Windows runs well on my microsd but I guess I'll find another solution or just keep pressing vol down + power then. Appreciate your work though!

That is why I didn't upgrade to the newer version of clover but staying with the old one (backed up the old version in case of reinstall) I don't use Windows very often on my Deck and so having it on MicroSD is more than fine for me - I tried to have it on my Seagate USB-C SSD but on this one it has slow dows which I don't have on my MicroSD card
