Recently, My hard drive failed and I ordered a new SSD. So, I am Tweaking around in BIOS Stuff and I came across this "Boot from EFI File" in Boot Device Options and to be Honest I don't know What It means and when to use that option. I really appriciate if any one could explain me what is it and when to use it.

Operating systems installed in EFI mode use an EFI executable file (or boot loader) to load themselves. Usually the system will automatically recognize Windows Boot Manager, for example, on a hard disk where you have installed Windows. This could be useful in the event that you are trying to boot from another disk, or are trying to boot something your system does not recognize as an operating system.

Got it, Thanks bro...!
