naonao naonvl Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 (edited) Hi, i just install bigsur on my laptop msi GL65-9SC. I have windows 11 before i install bigsur, on the same disk as windows 11. After i followed post install guide on opencore, i can't boot to windows if i'm using opencore since there's no windows boot option, and i can only boot to opencore using flashdisk. If i remove flashdisk, i only boot to windows. So i decided to add new boot entry, by following this post [HOW TO] Custom entry in OpenCore to boot Windows After some tweak, adding BOOTX64.EFI from flashdisk to OC/Microsoft/Boot/ then rename it to bootmgfw.efi (mac), but before that i change bootmgfw.efi (windows) to bootmgfw-win.efi. here's my ENTRIES <key>Entries</key> <array> <dict> <key>Arguments</key> <string></string> <key>Auxiliary</key> <false/> <key>Comment</key> <string>Windows 10</string> <key>Enabled</key> <true/> <key>Name</key> <string>Windows</string> <key>Flavour</key> <string>Windows10:Windows</string> <key>Path</key> <string>PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1D,0x0)/Pci(0x0,0x0)/NVMe(0x1,B6-D7-07-44-8B-44-1B-00)/HD(1,GPT,B08491B7-3FDD-47E9-B3DB-CD20D3CD5ECA,0x800,0x96000)/\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw-win.efi</string> <key>TextMode</key> <false/> </dict> </array> Edited November 29, 2021 by Allan Code tag!

miliuco Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 (edited) @naonao naonvl It's possible that OC doesn't recognise well the bootmgfw-win.efi file because usually it's named bootmgfw.efi. If there is in the EFI a folder named EFI\BOOT with a file named BOOTX64.EFI inside, try this path: PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1D,0x0)/Pci(0x0,0x0)/NVMe(0x1,B6-D7-07-44-8B-44-1B-00)/HD(1,GPT,B08491B7-3FDD-47E9-B3DB-CD20D3CD5ECA,0x800,0x96000)/\EFI\BOOT\BOOTX64.EFI And remember to complete your signature.

Probably something is wrong in config.plist. Upload the file but saying OpenCore version you are using. And complete your signature.
