Upon trying to install another operating system that used the Clover Bootloader and failing, I now can not boot into my Windows installation, getting boot0ss: error. I never had access to the failed OS installation. How could I delete Clover and switch back to the Windows bootloader from the EFI shell?

I also tried the windows 7 startup repair tool, but it failed. The windows repair tool doesn't even seen my hard drive also.

I fixed the issue by moving the recovery USB from a USB 3 port to a USB 2 port and running the commands:

diskpart
select disk 0 (This is the hard drive #.)
select partition 2 (This is the Windows partition #.)
active
exit
bootrec /rebuildbcd
a (for all)
bootrec /fixmbr
bootrec /fixboot

This let my operating system boot again.
