Such a massively helpful tutorial which seems like such an easy task. Had a nightmare with this for a while being forced to boot in CSM for months, thank you

[CesareVesdani]

Thanks for making this video. This will truly help me convert a hard drive from MBR to GPT with ease.

Flipping amazing. I went through all kinds of hell contacting Asus (mobo), Samsung (SSD) and MS (OS) and no-one would give me a straight answer. This was the solution!! THANK YOU!! 🙂

Thank you. I have been upgrading older MBT systems with new motherboards that only support EUFI and spent days reinstalling windows and program files. I can't believe this 2 minute fix not only exists, but was already located in my Windows directory. I watched a dozen YT videos telling me that this could not be done without having to re-format drives... WOW!

Hours of research and you just completely helped me out within 5 minutes. Thank you!

Would like to mention that your video reminds me of a young Michael Caine.. (also incredibly well done, maybe the best I ever watched.) Now speaking as a PC tech of 30 years, I was doubtful this technique would work on my target machine. In my situation, it failed before the horse even left the starting gate. The target system is a 9th gen i3 with a Samsung 970 Pro 512g NVMe drive, no DVD, and just the simple MBR partitions, for which I added an extra D drive partition (long ago) so I could back up C to D with Macrium and have all the docs/downloads/videos/etc folders isolated safely on D. This technique is a life saver. Regardless, when I ran MBR2GPT to verify...the system insisted there was no drive 0. To make sure I was not losing my mind, I ran DISK PART and LIST to confirm that the 512 GB drive was indeed drive 0. My thoughts are that your methods may not work on an NVMe drive, due to the unique way the drive is primed for booting. Your thoughts on this would be appreciated, but it looks like all the machines I have built for the bond trading group whose machines I service, will need a total wipe out to get GPT and Win 11.

This video is exactly what I was looking for, it was clear and easy to follow. Thank you!!

[camerongarofalo]

Thank you so much! I have been trying to understand why my secure boot is unsupported for hours and came across your video. It instantly worked. Very good at explaining!

[bdubs]

You are a genius. I cannot thank you enough, this was very simple to follow your instructions. The hardest part was hitting the ENTER key to convert it. I am very squeamish about making changes that cannot be undone as well as changing my BIOS configuration but everything worked out perfect. Thanks again!

[cindymeadows]

Great tutorial - easy-to-follow instructions! Exactly the fix I was looking for!

[URanInTheUglyForest]

Thank you for posting the video. As suspected, the process is simple. I just needed the right steps to follow.

[dieter]

Really the best Tutorial for converting a disk from MBR to GPT. Since I was following your instruction exactly step by step, I made the same error as you did. But then it worked out perfectly. Thanks a lot.

[black-undp]

Great video as always! I've got a question: is it possible to follow your video if I have two partitions? One for Windows and another for programs, games, etc. Thank you!!

[Jugglaburk]

Thank you for this video, short and directly on point :) It worked great for me.

[VicFX_]

THIS video THIS is the one I needed.
I was struggling with this for 7 hours straight and you fixxed it for me, thanks a lot 🙌🏽

[chadwheat]

You saved my life. 10 hours of dealing with this yesterday to no avail. This is THE tutorial video to watch if your windows 11 check finds that you cannot upgrade and has a boot issue. Took me hours to diagnose that my SSD that had windows 10 installed was the issue. You’re a life, and headache, saver! Cheers

[Undeadlysoul]

This is the best and clearest video on converting MBR2GPT!. Great work!

[jimmyl]

This was Awesome! Thank you I keep trying different ways to upgrade to windows 11 and this was the key!
