Solved Windows 11 23H2 update now shows two OS at startup on the same volume.

Very stressful morning after having updated Windows yesterday with 23h2 and then today when starting I picked the wrong OS at startup and went in a loop with the BIOS.

The only way I managed to fix the issue was to run windows from USB, go into repair, and then pick another operating system. I picked the bottom one and loaded up okay.

Why have I now got two identical windows OS on the same drive I believe after this update?

Any ideas on how to remove the OS that doesn't boot?

Thanks

Stuart

Try going to settings -> system -> about and select advanced system settings in the device specifications section. The advanced tab -> startup and recovery will allow you to edit the list.

You can delete the duplicated Windows 11 entire from boot tab of msconfig utility.

Hi, Stuey, welcome to the ElevenForums

Try not to let it stress you out, it’s just a machine. No match for some of the members in here to help you with.

And last time I checked, they still sell sledge hammers in hardware stores.
