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!

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.

I actually blundered into this fantastic tutorial 3 months too late. My gaming PC died and due to other issues I wound up with a "refurbished" Dell Optima 9010 that was setup to run in "Legacy" mode. It has Win 10, a SSD and an HDD (2 tb) so I decided to use it for gaming..... When I installed a video card is when the problem was apparent. I did manage to convert it, but I did it the hard way, and made another partition in the SSD "C:" drive. After changing the boot sequence to UEFI I was able use this PC for gaming. Very clear, very concise, I certainly wish I had seen this before I went through all the hell I went through....

Thanks for this tutorial. I needed to go to GPT as the penultimate step for my pc on the journey to Windows 11. I had spent a few hours on other tutorial methods but none had worked and was beginning to think I would have to shell out for a new pc. I was surprised it could be so easy. I still have to replace the CPU with one on the MS list and maybe some ram but that will be far cheaper than a new one.
