How to tell if Windows startup is UEFI or legacy bios

How do I determine if the Windows startup type is UEFI or legacy BIOS? During installation, you often need to determine what Windows startup means on your computer, is it a UEFI or a legacy BIOS? The following little Lego teaches you how to determine whether Windows startup is UEFI or legacy BIOS.

Apply to Win10, Win8.1, Win8, Win7, Vista.

Most x Method:

When the operating system is installed, the installer collects some of the necessary information, and the computer is started as one of them. Find the Setupact.log file in your computer C:windowspanther folder, open it in Notepad, and then search detected boot environment, where you can see how the system started.

When a friend sees you find this line of text from this dozens of MB log document, it's really too X-loaded.

The most intelligent way:

If you know about the relationship between GPT and Uefi startup, you probably knew that Windows would have to boot from a GPT hard drive (or not) in UEFI mode. In Disk Management look at the type of hard disk, if it is GPT, then the computer must be UEFI started. Turn on disk Management, right-click on the primary hard drive, and if "Convert to GPT Disk" appears, the hard disk is MBR type, or "Convert to MBR disk" indicates that the hard drive is a GPT type (because it is the primary hard drive, which is a gray unavailable state).

Master Use this method:

Press Win+r to open the run, enter Msinfo32, and return to view system information. In BIOS mode, if "legacy" is displayed, the system starts with the legacy BIOS, and if it is UEFI, the UEFI is displayed.

Well, there's another way:

The two startup methods of the system boot program files are different, the traditional mode of the boot file is an EXE program, and UEFI mode of the boot file is the EFI program. If you install the Rubik's Cube (click here to download), open the "Master of Soft Media settings"-"System Settings"-"Multiple system settings", in the boot menu you will see the full path of the boot file, look at the end of the file to know.

Legacy BIOS Boot Mode

Uefi startup mode

Anyway, is it useful to sum up so many methods? No way, the technology Emperor is so willful!

In fact, in addition to learning to look at the startup type, I hope you can learn something from the article before you do not know. Of course, the method may not be able to resist a netizen: However, this does not have any x use.
