If this issue happens to reappear and we have a backup of the Fedora folder, would it be a matter of placing the backup inside the ESP and reboot?

I'll write up the steps I took after sifting through the original thread in case it comes useful for anyone stumbling upon this:
NOTE: Mount your EFI partition(s) and confirm you only have either the
BOOT directory or a combination of both BOOT and Microsoft. If that's not the case these steps might not work for you.
1. Follow the steps to generate the hash of the bootx64.efi and bootmgfw.efi files (instructions here: https://discord.com/channels/1072614816579063828/1316221468581036055/1316229156232630333)
2. Confirm your hash starts with 49dda and ends with bbfc8
2. Download the rpm for grub2-efi-x64 and shim-x64 (I downloaded different ones but I don't think posting links would be a good idea, stick to the ones recommended by Linus: https://discord.com/channels/1072614816579063828/1316221468581036055/1316254125859541044)
3. Extract them and extract again the generated .cpio file, for both shim and grub2
4. For both packages, copy everything from the boot/efi/EFI/Fedora to your ESP: https://discord.com/channels/1072614816579063828/1316221468581036055/1316256352825245748
5. Reboot, you should be able to boot intro grub2 now (after selecting that boot entry in your BIOS for "Fedora"), otherwise you'll keep seeing the blue screen or booting into Windows
6. Do the steps starting from here until you can boot into Bazzite: https://discord.com/channels/1072614816579063828/1316221468581036055/1316264693597212672
7. Once in bazzite, go into Desktop mode and open a terminal
8. Type mount | grep /boot and find the line that says /boot (NOT /boot/efi) copy the partition name at the start of the line (/dev/nvme...)
9. type sudo blkid /dev/nvme.. where /dev/nvme.. is the partition name you copied last step
10. Copy the UUID
11. Follow the steps starting here until creating the /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg file: https://discord.com/channels/1072614816579063828/1316221468581036055/1316278476843778089, replacing the first line search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=dev f26929fd-c2b2-43fe-9563-759c845d6249 with your UUID after --set=dev 460 replies

It’s worth noting I didn’t need to do the very last steps of the process, after configuring and creating the grub.cfg file it worked for me

I cannot recall if mine had multiple Windows Boot Manager entries, but as long as you have the Boot and Microsoft folders and no Fedora folder on your EFI partition (or on either of them if you have two EFI partitions like me), I think the method should still apply

I don’t know exactly how to hash the file… I think you posted some instructions on this thread, I’ll try later today

Yeah I was thinking along those lines but I don’t know exactly how to check if the files are there. Can I use the bazzite (Fedora) live USB to access the command line and mount one of the EFI partitions? If I can, which files should I look for to make sure everything is fine and it’s just the boot option missing?
The answer to that might be on this same thread, I just haven’t had a chance to go through it

would these instructions change in any way if I'm having the exact same issue but I do have two EFI partitions with a single drive configuration?
