Cant boot Fedora

Hey, everybody. :slightly_smiling_face:
I have Windows 10 and Fedora 40 on my laptop. Everything worked fine through Grub. I haven’t used the laptop for a few days, but when I turned it on. I could barely boot into Win 10 after uninstalling the latest update. Secureboot is off.
What to do?



Updates sometimes push a storage device that has reached end-of-life into failure.

The 3rd image shows Fedora attempting to repair the filesystem, which can take a long time. I hope the repair succeeds and Fedora boots properly. If not, you may need to reinstall Fedora and restore user data from backups. I would first check the status of your mass storage. There are often tools from the drive vendor that run in Windows or as a bootable USB key, or you can use Gnome DIsks in the Fedora Live installer to check drive health.

Thanks for your answer. :slightly_smiling_face:
I found the problem. When I booted up Window 10 again, I got a new Intel driver RST update. I checked the Bios settings and they were back to basic. Reconfigured everything and Fedora booted again.
It’s very strange why the settings reset. Maybe Acer’s Bios is of poor quality. :grimacing:

Windows updates have been causing issues with linux recently. I’ve also seen changes to Dell UEFI settings after a Windows update – just removed Windows 10 from this system to end the time wasting.
