Make sure that Windows is actually installed. You could run this:
lsblk --output NAME,KNAME,RA,RM,RO,PARTFLAGS,SIZE,TYPE,FSTYPE,LABEL,PARTLABEL,PTTYPE,MOUNTPOINT,UUID,PARTUUID,WWN,MODEL,ALIGNMENT
somefile.txt
and then attach that "somefile.txt" to your reply. Mind, attach, do not paste. Menu File/attach/File(s).
Could not run the following. Don't know how to add "boot loader module"
to yast2.
You don't need to add anything, it is there.
If you don't see it, look again. If you don't see it, look again. If you don't see it, look again. If you don't see it, look again. If you don't see it, look again.
/If Windows is installed, you could run yast2 as root, then "boot loader" module, then "Bootloader options" tab. Here, make sure that // //// // [X] Probe Foreign OS // //// //is marked, then change the timeout one second up or down on the left of the screen, Then click [OK]./

JUST CLICK ON THE DAMN ICON!
Look at the photo.
OK, OK! I wasn't looking at that yast picture, I was opening yast2 from sudo as instructed. I have now the picture yu want me to have.
I did that. Got a blue-background screen. It asked me if it was OK and I said yes. If nothing boots now, I'll know why! Gonna
shut down now and try and restart and see what happens. Might have to answer from the Mageia machine!
Let's see. . . .Doug
Almost had to answer from Mageia machine. It doesn't like to boot anything, but after several hits and misses, I found a version that boots TW. No Windows. I hope I don't have to start over, but it's beginning to look that way. I put about 5 apps on Windows, just so I could use it at all, and I put 17 on TW, and even if I start over, I might wind up right back where I started yesterday! Is it possible that the 2021-0513 system is defective in this area? I still have the disk from last fall, but that would be a lot of upgrades--where I came in! --doug
