I believe this is what he/she is talking about.( initrd /@/boot/amd-ucode.img^/@/boot/initramfs-linux-zen.img ) the little arrow pointing up after ucode.img with that in there you cant boot to other drives and sometimes Garuda doent boot. Love Garuda but with that in there i cant do my work i use 2 different drives to make things work right but atm i can't and dont wanna redo my system please fix.
We know what this is about and looking for more info.
If you experience the same problem, post terminal output from the commands suggested, please.

Hai if you have bootable garuda usb…boot into garuda linux…Go to gparted. select the hard drive where boot is located…you will receive error message saying your harddrive primary gpt parition file is corrupted, but back up is loaded…select the boot partition and do right click to get options… in that select manage flag option…select “bios_grub” flag. you may see your harddrive getting mounted. shutdown , remove bootable usb and start into garuda linux…This worked for me. hope it works for you as well…
Unfortunately didn’t work; had no change.

This becomes confusing when two users post their terminal outputs.
If one of them then disregards the formatting, it becomes even more confusing.
Let's hope that both have the same problem.
For all those reading along who might want to help or learn, it would be appropriate to post the input and the output from the terminal.
Thank you.

I tried to format it but yeah still looks rough. Not sure how my terminal output will help as it's from the Garuda Live USB so not sure if that changes what it might have been if it was the hard drive's output which has the issue.
Try harder 
I just fix it.

That wasn't my output that you fixed.
Yes, sorry, I got confused and I am tired, good night all.

It seems it is happening on os-prober entries, so main Garuda entries (when updating grub from the Garuda system) look correct.
Can you confirm that its main Garuda entries boot properly (or grub entries are clean, when editing grub menu entry) and it breaks only the os-prober entries only?
@Smoogles please, post also this terminal output to confirm :
grep -w "tr" /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober
sudo grub-mkconfig | grep "initrd\|menuentry "

Thanks for your help i was only trying to help smoogles out because after the update the symbol in this line is back
initrd /@/boot/amd-ucode.img^/@/boot/initramfs-linux-zen.img
the caret symbol . I understand ya'll dont want people duel booting but not all your apps dont work with peoples programs. now before the update this ^ was not there. Myself i would just boot from bios no biggie then went back to previous snapshot and had no issue. I left Manjaro to come to Garuda but i think i will be looking for a different distro. I wish ya'll the best of luck because you do have a great distro.
Sorry you had to fix my stuff but i usually dont post on forums and i am new to arch and ya'lls was one of the easiest to use. best of luck

This seems like an Arch/upstream bug maybe. It was reported in the past and slipped out of the devs.
The Team is trying to fix it with a proper modification.

Just as an update I decided to install Garuda Sway as Testdisk and ddrescue said unrecoverable and I couldn't find solutions to repairing it unfortunately. Either way, thanks for assisting me with it and hopefully it won't happen again.
