MBR2GPT: Too many MBR partitions found, no room to create EFI system partition

  • In the process of moving Windows 10 from Legacy BIOS to UEFI using mbr2gpt command you might encounter the error that says "disk layout validation failed for disk 0" error. In this video I've addressed one of the reason behind this error.

    I had the problem "cannot find room for the efi system partition" when trying to use MBR2GPT. (There actually was 1.5 GB free unused space). I ran the C: drive Properties/Tools/Error Checking which found and fixed some problems. Then the MBR2GPT successfully finished. Thank you for your helpful videos, including the one about "Cannot find OS partition". I had that problem too, which your video gave the correct solution. Best regards.

    Thank you, I had like 4 partitions. Two recovery ones. After I removed one unused recovery partition, I was able to convert it from MBR to GPT and enable it in my BIOS for Windows 11.

    /Validate works fine.
    /Convert it says Cannot find room for the EFI system partition (I have 130GB free on C:)
    I have tried some unallocated space and tried to convert that into EFI & NTFS & New Volume & left it blank.
    Tried in windows PE environment & disabling reagentc.
    Layout is: System reserved - C: - Recovery (3 or less as required)
    I have asked ChatGPT Google TH-cam I still cannot get this to work out and I don't know why.

      I figured out I had to expand the Hard Drive partition that was not alocated, to at least about 2gb. But I wasnt allowed because my problem was with System Volume Information. So I had to go to Control Panel, System, Recovery, and allow me 2gb to use for the UEFI. Then it worked!
