I advise you to not give random access to people just like that. Especially not to not vetted members.

Please don't disgrace me like that.I advise you to not give random access to people just like that. Especially not to not vetted members.
I NEVER want to access another person's system with remote access.
Please, please don't hurt me.
Whatever I do in this respect WILL and SHOULD be PUBLIC in this forum , and verifiable by any expert / anyone else.
The very spirit of GNU/Linux and Free & Open Source Software is that you shouldn't trust anyone else ...... That makes malware next to impossible.
That is the very reason a lot of "support" scams take place in proprietary malware like Microsoft Windows.
That is also the very reason why those kind of scamming, malware etc., are almost non-existent on GNU/Linux.
I have never heard anyone ask/give remote access to another person's computer in the GNU/Linux world.
Please don't bring that bad tendency to our dear GNU/Linux.
Note for newbies : GNU/Linux is (almost) just another word for Linux, used by hardcore Free and Open Source enthusiasts.

1) Go to the menu (probably in the bottom left of your desktop, else use the keyboard key with Windows logo)
2) Now, search for MX Boot repair and open it. (Type the live USB password, demo , when asked)
3) Select "Repair GRUB configuration file" -> Apply -> Apply (with the root location as /dev/sdb2 -- assuming that is where you installed MX Linux)
4) Wait for it to complete and then close it
5) Now, reboot your system and see if you are presented with a screen asking which OS to boot (Linux, Windows or other advanced options)

Re: Help Novice Here How do I log back into Windows
Thank God. Anyway, your Windows installation ( and all its data in C drive ) is still there, waiting to be booted, as confirmed by the output of
BTW: By "disk" , I had meant "hard disk".
Code: Select all
ls /media/demo/FAE4EE8AE4EE4889 | grep -i program
I thought you had erased your C drive, but no, your C drive is safe.

@Incogneeto It is past 12 midnight in my part of the world.
:yawning:
Sleepy now, I'll stay online for some time and then doze off. Coming back tomorrow.
You can ask to the other awesome people here, they can very well support you.
There are experienced and knowledgeable people on this forum, even those developers who actually make MX Linux.
