Hi everyone,
I’m using a Kano computer that normally runs Windows. I was trying to install Raspberry Pi OS using a microSD card reader, and after that my Kano now boots straight into an EFI Shell screen.
It shows something like:
EFI Shell version 2.70
No bootable device found
Press ESC to skip startup.nsh
Pressing ESC does nothing, and it never boots into Windows anymore.
Important: I do NOT want to lose my data if possible.
What I was doing before this happened:
Kano was running Windows
I used a microSD card reader to prepare Raspberry Pi OS
After rebooting, the system started going to EFI Shell
My questions:
How can I exit EFI Shell and boot back into Windows?
Did installing Raspberry Pi OS on the microSD change the boot order or EFI settings?
Is there a way to repair the boot entry without resetting or wiping the system?
Any help would really mean a lot. Thanks! Sorry I now this is not all about raspberrypi but I did not know were to go
