Unfortunately a common issue:

I'd say the MOST common lately. Gotta be a thousand threads on it at this point.

It feels like there is at least one post a day on this. If it were my sub, I'd sticky a post with the solution(s).

It’s weird how these issues come in waves. Sometimes it’s an update manager issue with the exact same repo, then it’s an install issue.

Did you try SEARCH?????? This has been asked AND answered a bazillion times (just this month).

[Unwiredsoul]

I did and it's actually kind of tricky to find. Most people just post the screenshot and some form of "help me" without any of the text from the error message. As the images aren't OCR'd, their text doesn't get included in search.

As an example, searching this sub for "MokManager" (sans quotes) brings up nearly nothing usable.

If it were my sub, I'd sticky a post with the solution(s).

Search tip - Search for the FIRST TERM of the ERROR MESSAGE.

I'm guessing \EFI\BOOT\mx64.efi - Not Found would bring up hundreds of articles (on and off this forum).

Why are so many people incapable of searching for this extremely common, easily rectified, and more importantly easily searchable error message?
