Issue Booting in Windows (Bootcamp) on MacBook Pro after resizing partition
Post Body

So recently Ive been running out of space and decided to finally resize my Windows partition to allow more storage space. I came across this thread and followed all the instructions up until it cane to restarting my laptop. When I went to restart I got an error message saying "No start up disk detected" and when I go to choose my start up disk the only option I have is my Mac boot. I tried going to System Preferences and Startup Disk and I can see BOOTCAMP Windows there but its a folder image instead of the typical disk image. Any idea how to fix this?

Under Disc Utility I have Macintosh HD, Untitled (the space I freed up from my Mac partition) and BOOTCAMP. I can highlight BOOTCAMP but unlike the others I can't choose repair diagnostics and only Erase or Unmount (which I obviously dont really want to do).


After further research I've also found this thread and this thread and tried doing what they did but to no avail.


I'm on a mid-2012 MacBook Pro. I would very much like to try and find a way to remedy this without completely wiping my HD. I accept that that may be a possibility but after looking at these other threads it appears there are ways to fix this.

I thank you in advance for any help!

I'm on OS X El Capitan
