Kernel Missing due to power fail can only boot using timeshift snapshots now

Hello, curious if anyone can give me some guidance on what to do next here. Installed updates and during kernel install my laptop plug got jiggled which sometimes shuts it down. I know thats an issue to solve, but another day...

Since this time i have to boot using a snapshot because the main boot menu item is broken. kernel file seems to be missing.

I have tried to install grub boot repair for garuda from pacman. didnt help.
I tried just updating within the snapshot...that didnt work.
I tried restoring to a few days old snapshot but that does not fix this issue either. it seems the boot parameters are outside the snapshot system.

What i would like to do is repair the default grub options so the original system will boot up without having to manually select a snapshot to boot from. Is it possible to do that? Thanks.
