How to fix grub from rescue mode?

User Support

I need help urgently my work depends on qubes os, I’ll send 30bucks to whoever can help me fix this, if it gets solved.

I had qubes os installed and i installed windows to dual boot (security threats that result from this do not bother me)

Right now i can boot into windows with windows boot manager but cant boot into qubes at all, even manually entering it in the bios boot order doesn’t do the job.

More info:
Uefi.
I only have 1 tb ssd (nvme)
1 partition, 630gb where windows is installed
And the rest are the qubes partitions
I need to fix this asap so i will answer any question faster then lightning, thank you guys

Edit: I can make a live debian usb if this cant be fixed trough rescue mode

Do you have secure boot disabled and legacy mode enabled in BIOS?

Do you see the GRUB menu when you boot the Qubes OS UEFI menu entry?
Check the files in EFI System partition to see that Qubes OS boot files are still there in EFI/qubes/ directory. I think you can check this in WIndows.
Boot from some Live Linux OS (e.g. from Qubes OS installer and switch to the console with Ctrl+Alt+F2) and check if your Qubes OS partitions are untoched:

fdisk -l

No and no

Files are there but i dont even see the, just a black screen and nothing else, i guess grub files are corrupted but idk how to fix that

Try to add a new Qubes OS EFI boot entry:

Also check the content of EFI/qubes/grub.conf file, there should be UUID of Qubes OS /boot partition, check that this UUID is the same as your /boot partition UUID in this command output:
