Hi ! So i use the repair upgrade feature of windows 10 enterprise to
update to the new build.
Since it was bugging on the vm i booted in native in order to do the
update.
I reinstalled grub afterwards to be able to boot linux and now i can't
launch windows anymore from qemu.
So, what happened? is it a problem with the drivers not properly set
because i did the update in native?



if you booted the "vm" native and did the upgrade, the upgrade process probably screwed up your boot drivers. i'm not so sure that booting a vm native is a good idea, especially with windows.

assuming the problem is just a few missing drivers and you can get into recovery mode on the vm, then you can try the dism trick and inject boot drivers to an offline copy of windows.

this can be a handy trick if you for example move a harddrive from one computer to another and get inaccessible boot device and dont want to reinstall.

the basic process is something like this:
boot to recovery and make sure you can access both the windows installation and the drivers needed to boot.
open up a cmd window and take a look at the command line options for dism.
if i remeber correctly you need to specify where the offline windows copy is and where the drivers are located. you should be able to specify a root folder or similar where the drivers are and get it to inject all drivers in that folder tree.

then reboot an hope for the best.
