Causes of this Error

This error has been known to occur equally a result of i or more of the following:

GRLDR is a nickname/abridgement for the GRUB bootloader for Windows (also known as Grub4Dos or Grub for Dos), and is often used to set upwards a PC to dual-boot into Windows and one or more Linux (or other *nix-based) operating systems.

While most Linux distribution (such equally Debian's, Ubuntu'due south, or Fedora's) ordinarily install the Chow or GRUB2 bootloader, the installation routines of some distributions will endeavour to set up the Windows bootloader to co-exist with the Linux installation past adding GRLDR either to the BCD menu or by replacing BOOTMGR with GRLDR entirely (and attempting to load information technology instead).

This error tin occur either immediately after such a Linux distribution is installed or at some betoken in the hereafter when Automatic Update or Windows Update patches the bootloader files or the bootsector itself, breaking the GRLDR-based configuration.

The Ubuntu-based "Wubi" is ane such case. Wubi attempts to install Ubuntu to a virtual hard disk stored as a local file on your Windows NTFS/Fat sectionalisation instead of assigning it an bodily deejay partition. Wubi then integrates WUBILDR (a variation of GRLDR and curt for "Wubi Loader") into the BCD or Boot.INI to chainload Wubi from this virtual deejay as a kicking-time startup option.

Crusade 3: NTFS bootsector incorrectly updated

Certain system-level software and utilities volition endeavour to reconfigure, upgrade, update, or repair the NTFS or FAT32 bootsector for the boot sectionalisation. Normally, the bootsect or bootrec command-line tools are used for this process. 3rd party software attempting unsupported/unofficial updates to the bootsector tin can break the delicate kick concatenation and cause the "no GRLDR" to appear.
