[CLOSED] Shutdown durin windows update, EFI stub: Failed to read file.

Hello,

My laptop just shat down during a windows update (my battery is dead and someone steped in the power cable).
Since it, i have the following message on boot :

EFI stub: ERROR: Failed to read file
Trying to load files to highter address
EFI stub: ERROR: Failed to read file 

My windows boot correctly.

EDIT1: I don't found my archlinux partition in the bios, but i don't know if it was found before. My laptop have stranges behaviours with bootloaders.

Thanks smile

Your post is much too vague. Assuming you have installed Archlinux yourself, download the Archlinux iso install disk, look for your partition and reinstall your bootloader. Just as you have done when installing Archlinux. If there is still problems repost with more explanations.

But how have you installed Archlinux? Assuming you have installed Archlinux, you have installed the bootloader. Just reinstall it as you did for the first time. Sometimes Windows change the partition number. If you have still problem, describe what you have tried, your partition layout, the bootloader configuration, etc.
