GRUB not detecting my windows partiton












0















I've been trying to get a windows dual boot running but GRUB is being a bit of a pain at the moment. I can boot into Debian from the boot menu but
Windows is nowhere to be seen.



Boot-info : http://paste.ubuntu.com/24698360/



I've tried running "update-grub" and "os-prober" from inside Debian but had no luck with it. "os-prober" did detected a widows recovery partion.



I booted up a boot-repair image and repaired the MBR because I really wanted to use a windows program (Windows booted fine this time) and then again repaired GRUB after that. There is no option in the boot menu for Windows.



All comments are appreciated.

    Are you using UEFI or BIOS?

  • grub-install do it automatically, you can do grub-install /dev/sdx && grub-update replace sdx with your volume.
