Surface Pro 7+ - multiple errors
- Nov 18, 2025
Sadly, there's no solution. Had to completely reinstall and wipe everything completely.
I think I'm never installing any upgrade that's younger than 6 months ever again lol.
In my stressed state it did not occur to me that Surface probably has a different way of entering the BIOS than normal computer. I was able to get into BIOS (holding vol up and then pressing power button), in one of options there was to try installing from USB but I got "Refresh settings request failed, (file name).Dfi not found". Turned off the device, and I just now read somewhere to hold vol DOWN and then power to boot from USB. It did work in some way, I got the repair/reinstall menu. Will try different options (I don't want to wipe all my data :(((( ), for now it's "repair attempt", I'll see how it goes. Will post an update when something works.
