How to access your EFI with Windows

  1. Open PowerShell or Command prompt with admin rights (Win key + X and then A)
  2. Then type the following in the Terminal shell:
    • diskpart
    • select disk 0 : you have only one disk
    • select part 1 : you are usually selecting a FAT32 partition with size in range 100 - 300 MB
    • assign letter=z : any non-reserved letter works
  3. Now EFI partition is mounted in Windows and you can use Explorer++ to make your changes
    • Open Explorer++ with admin rights
    • Select EFI partition (Z) in the left pane and you can edit contents from the right pane
  4. Now you can unmount EFI partition:
    • select volume Z
    • remove letter Z
  5. To exit from diskpart tool run exit
  6. To exit from PowerShell or the Command prompt run exit
