This quick video just saved me from so much headache! seeing that windows 10 will reach its end of life in a year, I was anxious to fix the secure boot pre-requisite that my system did not meet. After following multiple videos and reading through a whole forum thread, a quick search that brought up this video saved my day! keep up the great work.
I have been struggling with this on my PC for a few months. No article has covered what you covered and you actually solved my problem!! Thank you very much :) I finally have Windows 11!
This was so helpful. I have been trying to do this using forum posts from years ago with no avail. Clear, straight to the point, and most importantly, worked flawlessly. Thank you so much!
Last solution around 3:28 finally helped me after hours, haven't seen many videos that hit the nail on the head like this. Thank you so much bro, trying to convert after my windows had corrupted and need reinstalling was getting confusing.
I really wish I could put more than one like under this video. It was so hard to me to find a correct instructions for my system, due to some particular properties which are different for my system. I really appreciate that you cover all of possible cases in cmd, thank you so much bro, bless you !!!
This is great. I found the error info logged in the setupact file (3:00 mark). In my case, one of the partitions was too close to end of drive. I created free space at the end of the drive and then conversion worked perfectly.
My disk have 4 partitions both are recoveries types, one 557mb and other 776mb (offset 464gb and 465gb) and the primary is for the system (2438mb, offset 1024kb) what should i do?
You have to remove the partition that you are using as storage. Don't remove system, recovery or windows partitions. Watch this video: ua-cam.com/video/tYUBiWO0P9o/v-deo.html
Hi man, thanks so much for this. It was nice and easy to follow 😁👍 I see that you're still replying to comments so I just have a quick question to ask. After everything is done and the drive is now GPT, do I still need the the new volume (V:) that was made. if I dont need it then can i just delete it?
Você foi a única pessoa que falou que o disco (MBR para GPT) NÃO pode ter mais de 3 partições ... o meu tinha 4 por isto dava o falho de validação . Agora 100 % ok para instalar W11. Muito Obrigado amigo ! .
Mine says "check that you are running in a process with elevated privileges" and when i check task manager it says that cmd is not elevated, what's the solution?
If they'd pointed to the log file in cmd, I'd have known my first partition was too close to the beginning of the disk an hour ago. Thank you for pointing that part out (where the log file is.)
great video, thanks a bunch - just wondering, now I've created that V partition, do I have to keep it? Or can I get rid of it without it affecting anything?
What do I do if I cloned my windows 7 onto a gpt drive I split into two separate partitions to dual boot? It show disk 2 as gpt even though the cloned partition is still mbr
When I tried to change MBR to GPT my computer says "bad_module_info has stopped working." I just built this new computer. New RAM, Ryzen CPU, and new ASUS motherboard. I am using my previous computer's SSD, which has Windows 10 When I put the MBR2GPT /Convert /Allowfullos command at the prompt I get validating layout, disk sector size is: 512. Disk layout validation failed for disk 0 I have two partitions on the drive, both are named "primary." Can you advise this old man? Please.
Hello! Thank you for the detail fixes, however, instead of the error that you get on 3:15, I get an error saying: ValidateLayout: Unrecognized partition found, index What could I do next to fix this issue?
Maybe you have a partition that was created on Linux OS or using another tool that is not supported in windows OS. So, you may need to use a third party tool to remove that partition after copying your files to another partition or to external storage.
Thank you so much, i saw some people ask if we can now delete the V drive but you say we cant because the BCD file is in there. would it be possible to just move the BCD drive somewhere else? Also my system created an F: drive called "System Reserved", what do i do with this?
If you want to delete the V drive and create new one, then there is no problem in that. In old windows editions with MBR systems, the BCD can be stored inside windows partition. But why you are want to delete it? *System Reserved partition* in EFI systems (with size about 16 mb) should not be deleted, because it contains important info related to the disk and system.
well the 4 partition problen is not solvable. I have three partitions created by Windows (cannot be deleted without detriment to the system - System, Reserved, Recovery) and one primary. total is four. I am not sure if I can remove any without breaking the system since the first three were created by Windows 11 installation process.
Use Notepad tool or DIR command to determine which one is the storage partition. Watch this video, it can help: ua-cam.com/video/tYUBiWO0P9o/v-deo.html Also this may help: ua-cam.com/video/nENTXwvHw3s/v-deo.html
In default, the app will select the disk that contains the windows OS. If you have another windows files inside the disk 0, then disconnect the disk from your computer or delete the windows folder if you are not need it.
I have 4 partitions named EFI System Partition, Recovery Partition, Basic Data Partition and the Windows C Drive. As you mentioned, mbr2gpt has to have at max 3 partitions, but I have 4 and none of them are user partitions. What to do now ? Which one to delete ?
You have to move your important files from the *Basic Data Partition* to the C or to external storage, after that, delete it (i.e. *Basic Data Partition* ). But the EFI partition is strange, since this partition name is assigned only in GPT systems!
@@ValiumMediaTech Somehow when I re-ran mbr2gpt command again, it went well and the only error I got was winre failed to do something and asked me to manually disable and enable it, which I did. Rebooted and saw that my storage is now GUID. Also opened BIOS and it seemed to have detected the changes and enabled secure boot by itself. All went well. Now waiting for W11 update
I get a 'failure when attempting to copy boot files' even though my screen everything looks just the same (except the disk in question for me is disc 0). Any ideas?
Thanks for the video, but everything I try fails. Initially when I ran mbr2gpt it said not enough space(only the drive is being used), Disk 0(C drive) has 5.27 GB unallocated at the end. It validates okay but fails. So I created a simple vol V: but it failed activation, I transferred the boot files to it but then it failed validation . I going in circles here, any other suggestions. Can I create the required space by deleting files from the drive?
@@ValiumMediaTech Hi, Thanks for the reply. I looked at the other vid but don't really see anything new that I haven't tried from this video. The drive validates okay(3 partitions with 5.27gb unallocated at the end) but still says can't create space. I tried shrinking the OS partition by 500 like you did but it doesn't do anything I can see. When I change the unallocated to drive V I can't activate it. Then it shows it can't validate. When I put it back to the way it was, it will validate okay again but still fails for convert. Any other suggestions to try? thanks for your time.

Seem you have two disks and the system partition is available in disk 1, while windows is installed on disk 0. If this is your case, you have to remove the system partition from disk 1 and recreate it on disk 0, after that try MBR2GPT again. Also you can use a third party app to convert your disk to GPT as shown on this video: ua-cam.com/video/kXlaZzMvEfg/v-deo.html

I am getting the same error message " wrong boot partition count" but I do not see any unallocated space on the drive. Not sure how to create another partition.
if you have 4 or more partitions, you have to delete one partition first. To shrink a particular partition, select it first, then shrink desired size, for example, to shrink a 100 mb from C partition, then you have to execute the following commands: DISKPART SEL VOL C SHRINK DESIRED=100
I did the last step and my pc now wont even try to open.it is stuck in this recovery screen saying my device needs to be repaired.i tried everything and i did everything in the video but now i have to format i guess.
This is brilliant but still doesn't work for me. I was able to create boot files but still can't validate or convert the disk. There is windows on c drive and a small partition 50mb on D drive with system I have 5 disks connected but have been able to select the right disk using your method I have sporadically tried to fix this for years now. I think the only way is to disconnect all other drives and wipe c drive and start again fresh If anyone can help me avoid this it would be greatly appreciated Thanks

Hi there, what is the different between list partition and list volume? thnx
LIST PART
Shows volumes or partitions of the selected disk only.
LIST VOL
Shows all volumes from all disks.
after creating new volume V and converting it can you delete or remove?
If the created V partition contains the BCD file, then the computer won't boot if you delete it.
i have 1 system reserved and other is health recovery why cant i delete those
Because you will need System and Recovery partitions to complete the conversion process.
what happen if partition 4 become (Unallocated) instead (Free Space)?
please answer aaaaaaa. my partition D already gone
bruh you dont even said things that should do when someone had their pc (Unallocated) instead (Free space)....

BCDBOOT C:\WINDOWS
The previous commands will create a new system partition and then enable the BCD, however, if that is not your problem. you have to upload a photo for your partitions to get help.
@@ValiumMediaTech HOLY SHIT, that actually worked! thank you so much!!! I was able to convert the disk successfully. You are a blessing. I spent too many hours on this trying to find the solution in the internet 🤣
Not plz help it shows this tool can only be used from windows pre installation
If this error appears when executing MBR2GPT, make sure to include /AllowFullOS in the command to fix that.
@@ValiumMediaTech I did it again but this it shows conversion failed plz help me im really in big trouble

@@ValiumMediaTech Hey thanks man! turned I chose the wrong partition as an active
@@ValiumMediaTech hey can we delete the partition that was created to copy bcdboot?
@@satwiksrivastava495 Yes you can, but take a great care to not delete a wrong partition.
@@satwiksrivastava495 You are welcome!
yes but when i reset my pc and try to go into windows i get an error
May be Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) is disabled or corrupted in your computer, so you have to create a bootable USB in your mobile and then boot from that USB.
Watch the following video to see how to create a bootable USB in your mobile:

Watch this video to see how to boot into WinRE from the bootable USB:

So mbr2gpt not supported using 4 partition?
Yes, so you have to remove one partition first. Alternatively, you can use EaseUs Partition Master app as you can se on the following video if you don't wont to remove one of your partitions:

Can i delete the V partition after finishing everything?
I don't know what is your V partition, however, you can't delete Windows, Recovery or boot partition as stated on the video.
@@ValiumMediaTech the V partition is the partition you created for the BCDBOOT command
@@liquidsn01You should not delete that!
I am getting the same error message " wrong boot partition count" but I do not see any unallocated space on the drive. Not sure how to create another partition.
if you have 4 or more partitions, you have to delete one partition first.
To shrink a particular partition, select it first, then shrink desired size, for example, to shrink a 100 mb from C partition, then you have to execute the following commands:
DISKPART
SEL VOL C
SHRINK DESIRED=100
Thanks for replying. I see only the primary partition and 2 recovery partitions with sizes of 532mb and 458mb.@@ValiumMediaTech
You're amazing. Just wow...
Wow, thank you!
None of these worked for me, all I get is "Cannot find OS partition(s) for disk 2"

I did the last step and my pc now wont even try to open.it is stuck in this recovery screen saying my device needs to be repaired.i tried everything and i did everything in the video but now i have to format i guess.
You don't have to format it. Tell me why you have tried to use this video so I can help you?

This is brilliant but still doesn't work for me.
I was able to create boot files but still can't validate or convert the disk.
There is windows on c drive and a small partition 50mb on D drive with system
I have 5 disks connected but have been able to select the right disk using your method
I have sporadically tried to fix this for years now. I think the only way is to disconnect all other drives and wipe c drive and start again fresh
If anyone can help me avoid this it would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Thank you m8! You are the best
Thank you too!
Omg u r life saver tyvm for the guide!!!
But can I remove the v drive after?
Thank you too for the nice comment!
Yes,you can't remove it unless you have another EFI partition

Maybe your computer is very old, or those options are available in another place or have another names in your BIOS
Yikes man I really hope u checked before u changed it

Make sure all partitions has an assigned letters, especially the one n which the windows is installed.
