    MBR2GPT Error - Frustrated

    I think those steps will fail because mbr2gpt is looking for a system partition, which you just deleted previously.

    Thanks for your feedback Andre.

    The link below contains a video I was using to try and convert my MBR to GPT on my system drive..

    MBR2GPT - Windows Deployment | Microsoft Learn

    The video explains that the methods used in your suggestion will destroy data and that is why the new utility MBR2GPT is the recommended solution. Since this utility is new with the latest Fall Creators Update, it may need updating. I hope someone has more
    experience with it and can shed some light on why it fails for me.
