WIndows 8.1 blocked due to corruption of the boot

Question

Hello, I recently installed Ubuntu on my laptop (with Windows 8.1 and UEFI) and I installed Grub on the Windows Boot Manager. Therefore, when I start the Grub appeared and the option WIndows Boot through the EFI partition Grub recharged me. I have tried uninstalling the Grub, and I have locked the Windows 8.1 system when I go I get a Message saying blue image can not be mounted. IN Windows system recovery, I said that the system was blocked by corruption starting. 

Did you know how to fix this? 

Thanks in advance.

Hi, welcome. 

 

It is highly recommended to install Linux on UEFI-based computers. 

If necessary, it is preferable to do it in BIOS mode. 

 

To resolve your issue you have to rebuild the boot loader and the boot manager on the EFI partition. 

Below I put a link to a tutorial that should solve your problem. 

Just be aware that where it says 

bcdboot c: \ windows / l en-us / s v: / f ALL 

and while I understand that your Windows is in Spanish, you have to put 

bcdboot c: \ windows / l en-GB / s v: / f ALL

Hello, thank you very much for your input, I'll take out when I have some time. I would also ask if you restore the system could solve the problem. Another alternative that occurred to me (although a little bit silly) would format the EFI boot partition. 

Thanks and regards.

No, System Restore does not solve this type of incidents.

System Restore recovers soolamente above registry settings.

If you format EFI not be able to boot Windows.

For the case of a mixed Windows-Linux installation and not just as prefeccionarse the UEFI mode on Linux, the best is:

1 Capture by a WindowsPE volume C:

2 Disable UEFI BIOS

3 Clear the partition table and partition the drive and contemplating the future scenario Linux-Windows

4 Apply the captured image of C: on the new C:

5 Add the Windows boot files on the system partition (bcdboot).

6 Install Linux.
