OK, THX

I have to leave you now for 2 hours.

I find out s.th. for you.

diskpart
create partition primary

I want to see the result of this:
run
diskpart
sel disk 1
list par
exit

Diskpart
sel disk 1
sel par 4
delete partition override
exit

Then let's try to bring the EFI-Partition to the end of disk 1 and reconfigure the Recovery
Otherwise the upgrade to WIN 11 adds...

What does that mean?
Boot into BIOS and change to UEFI
The rest will be done later

Can you translate please

Conversion completed successfully:chuckle:

Boot into BIOS and change to UEFI
The rest will be done later

OK, we are ready to convert to gpt.
run
mbr2gpt /convert /disk:1 /allowFullOS


Boot into BIOS and change to UEFI

The rest will be done later

run
mbr2gpt /validate /disk:1 /allowFullOS

You did not execute the command
sel par 2
delete partition override

That is the reason why you have the 2nd recovery (1,03 GB) at the end!

You also didn't do this:
"mbr2gpt /validate /disk:1...

OK, your active EFI is on Disk 0 and your C-Partition is on Disk 1.
To find out which Recovery you use type:
Cmd (admin)
C:\Windows\System32>reagentc /info
and post the result

OK, let's go :busted:
Just make sure that you get each line from the commands in #38

I think, the best way to do this, is to copy everything to notepad and use
cut & paste

For the last time! (D:) is right. But did you create the Scratchfolder?
mkdir D:\scratch ?
X:> dir D:
?

... SFC or DISM ran from the legacy environment ...

They never run in legacy...

Copy & paste line by line and wait for the system response after each input

Do not begin before I see the result from diskpart.

diskpart
sel disk 1
list par
exit

Error Message: Failed to load the provider: X:\windows\system32\Dism

Have no idea what that means. I have to ask a friend.

So for today I say bye.

The first column in the upper part "Volume" is not readable.

Best Solution is to place the new EFI-Partition at the end of disk 1.
Here are your Comand Prompt inputs:
same as...

If you know how to replace the ancient WinRE.wim on (E:) Recovery Environment with a newer one using Explorer++ let me know.

sfc /scannow /offbootdir=D:\ /offwindir=D:\Windows /offlogfile=D:\sfc.txt

try without scratchdir

Dism /image:D:\ /cleanup-image /restorehealth

don't forget this when you start a new session...

Failed to create Dism Image Session in host! A problem ocurred loading the image session.
A DVD? which win version?
The command with (D:) is correct. We don't want to analyse your DVD!

There is no boot problem

Did you run from Recovery Environment? If yes, try the USB and in command prompt type
X:> diskpart
list vol
exit
to verfy that the Letter is still (D:) It might have changed.

You also can use...

You can download "Explorer++" it's portable and copy it to your USB-Stick in the WIN-DIR. That makes it much easier afterwords.
Explorer++ - Download

click in the searchbox and type cmd
In the opening window select command prompt run as administrator

What is your active EFI-Partition?

Type command prompt as admin
C:\Windows\System32>bcdedit

Yes, it's the easy way! Just 5 $ And some years ago I lived in Bremen :-)

There is s.th. to do. ;)

YES, that is possible. The problem is that the right install.wim index is needed and the dism-command is very complicated,

s.th. like this: Dism /image:K:\ /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth...
