Steam Deck Windows 11 Issue

Hello,

I took the liberty of purchasing Valve's Steam Deck and then installed Windows 11 (I kept Steam OS). In the end, I regret it and removed it using the crab info trick, but I still have Windows 11 in my BIOS (which no longer works; I'm talking about Windows 11). How can I delete it? I've already tried efibootmgr, but it keeps coming back. With KDE Partition, I can't do anything because there's a lock next to ESP that prevents me from making changes. How can I remove it, please?

    Hello,

    Have you tried it through the register or not?

    Hey, is there a registry on the Steam Deck in the Steam OS? After that, I just want to delete the EFI of Win11.

      Hi,

      What brand of PC do you have?

      Also, your photo is upside down too.

    Did you really read it? I specified "SteamDeck"! No PC brands (omen, acer) etc.

      Hi,

      After all, 11 is just an update:

      Select the Start button, then select Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update > View update history > Uninstall updates. ...

      1. Select and hold (or right-click) on the update to remove, then select: Uninstall and see if 11 goes away.

      I have already uninstalled it; it's just that I have the EFI that remains...

      We cannot do that since Windows is not installed and the EFI is not software but a system partition containing the bootloader.

      Exactly, but I would like to delete it, except that it is still locked in the kde partition, which prevents me from deleting it. But I will try with gnome if I find my sd card.
