[SOLVED] Can't boot into arch after enabling "zerotier one"

I decided to try "zerotier" on arch. I have installed it via sudo pacman -S zerotier-one and connected to my network through the command line after running systemctl enable zerotier-one . Then when my battery run out I connected the the charger into the laptop and booted it. I can't now access arch Linux and the pc boots only into the UEFI shell. In the boot section in the bios there also isn't an option to boot in arch.
I have some very important documents there which I haven't saved anywhere else so I can't just reinstall the system. Please help

This has nothing to do with zerotier-one. It sounds like your firmware lost it's NVRAM entries, you need to boot an install disk, mount everything, chroot, and reinstall your bootloader.

So I need to just reinstall grub? And I will not loose my data?

Reinstalled grub, still the same problem

You can edit your posts if no one has posted in between.

What does "reinstalled GRUB" mean exactly? Which commands, which partition? On certain EFI boards it can be necessary/helpful to populate the fallback path: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GRUB#D … _boot_path

Sorry, I confused there for a bit. I reinstalled it correctly and it's working fine now
