Windows Memory Diagnostics Not Installed On W10 Pro x64
Hi, running W10 Pro x64 on a desktop with i7 5820k.
When I try to run the Windows Memory Diagnostic, I initiate the action and restart the computer.
However, during boot when it gets to the point where it is ready to run the Memory Diagnostic it gives me a message that the Memory Diagnostic (memtest.exe) is not installed, and it needs the memtest.efi file on the installation disk.
Unfortunately, when I try to run the Memory Diagnostic with the Windows System Desk in the tray, it does not give me an option to install memtest.efi. I'd install it manually, but I cannot understand how to get from memtest.efi to memtest.exe.
I have googled this, but it is not directly addressed anywhere, except for a few places recommending a Windows reinstall, which is not practical for me.
Any suggestions as to how to solve this will be appreciated.
thanks
