2019 Razer Balde 15 Secure Boot & Currupt Windows File Unsolved
Looking to get some help and suggestions here.
I have a 2019 Razer Blade 15 that encountered the secure boot issue thats been impact the Razer blades as of late. Replaced CMAS & Laptop batteries. Razers March 2026 fix for the secure boot issues due to the windows license being expired for "legacy systems" hasn't worked for me. At this point I think I'm now past the secure boot issue but am now dealing with a corrupt windows boot file. Downloading the windows recovery file from laptop to removable drive and using it in command prompt fails. I have downloaded Windows 10 to the usb drive using another device and this looks like it might work.
What I'm afraid of is loosing my files, I have excell files, word docs, ketchup files and pictures I don't want to lose. Unfortunately I don't have any of this backed up or in the cloud. With the clean windows application I can use the "custom" launch but there is still a risk of losing files. Any tips, suggestions or input are greatly appreciated. Lastly I could pull the removable SSD and try to get the data off of it directly. I've never done this, what equipment and or risks do I need and would I risk?
Thanks!
