Thanks Jim.
C:\EFI\Boot and C:\EFI\BootIt are ok. Leave them alone.
Unfortunately, C:\EFI has scrolled off the monitor. You can view earlier pages with...
DIR /p
Brian,
The missing stuff at the top is just the Bootit directory I think. It only scrolled because I wanted to show the contents of the Boot and Bootit dirs
...

Also FYI, the image restore using that NVME dock completed. Took about 2.5 hours for about 195GB and I have now replaced the imaged NVME into the VOSTRO...
FYI, I didn't have to do anything with BIU after the restore.... it just worked. I think it's because the new SSD is installed in the same physical VOSTRO machine that the image came from, so it didn't have to adjust anything.

I can't see the first page of C:\EFI
Good news about BIU working without a reinstall.

Brian,
Wasn't there a way to install OSDT or something on Windows so I could run those commands without having to reboot into BIU, and also so I could copy the screen in Windows instead taking a picture with a phone?

You can't lock the ESP in Windows TBOSDT.
You can use TeraByte Explorer. More later.

IFW
Utilities
Ready to run scripts
TeraByte Explorer
from here it is using the keyboard, selecting with arrow keys and pressing Enter.
File Explorer

That's it. The same as Scripts C:\EFI

Here's the dir of EFI:
- efi.jpg (124.77 KiB) Viewed 12656 times
BTW, looking at the dates for the dirs, I am pretty sure that they started about the time that I first bought and started using the VOSTRO.

Thanks Jim. If it's OK with TeraByte Support, I'd delete all Dell.xxx using TeraByte Explorer.

So I've been doing some testing and:
- I went to Dell Support site and check drivers and install 5 driver updates, including a bios update.\
- When I check the EFI, there was an additional dell.xxx directory
- I tried to delete dell.001/logs and I was able to do that using a combination of 'rm' command and an 'rd'.
The 'rd' requires that the dir be empty, so it'd be a pain to do if there was a lot of stuff under a dir.

TeraByte Explorer can delete all those full directories.
