    There is 3 boot loaders and one of them the last one is Macrium Reflect and one of the other two should be the new drive I put in windows G is that correct? I don't see G listed anywhere.

    What did you post that confirms the new OS is on G:? You can look in Disk Management and confirm that G: is the 2nd Windows installation drive letter or find out what it really is.

    No matter what drive you install Windows on, Windows will usually say that is drive C:
    According to msconfg, the Windows OS that you are booted into is on drive C:
    If you want to, you can select Macrium boot file and Delete it.
    Press the Windows key +X and choose Disk Management, in the Lower Pane, please post a screenshot of it showing all or your drives.

    Sure, give that a try.

    After you run the bcdboot command, check the output of "bcdedit /enum" and see if the 2nd OS with G:\Windows is listed in the output.

    OK I ran those two commands and after Boot Manager the first boot loader is G and the second boot loader is C and the last one is Macrium.
