self contained

The tag 'self contained' on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about making Windows installations independent of other drives or bootloaders. A recurring theme involves users who want each operating system on a multi-boot system to have its own bootloader on its own disk, avoiding cross-disk dependencies. For example, a user describes installing Windows on one SSD while the bootloader was placed on another SSD containing Linux, and seeks a method to relocate the Windows bootloader so that both SSDs are self-contained. The tag focuses on troubleshooting bootloader placement and achieving disk independence without hardware changes.
