Hello, I installed proxmox 8.3.2 on Debian 12 following these steps https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Install_Proxmox_VE_on_Debian_12_Bookworm. I have a pc with windows 11 and debian 12 and I had a grub config where I could select windows or debian. Now, after installing proxmox and removing the debian kernel, I updated the grub config as stated, but now the grub menu doesn't show the windows installation, only proxmox

lsblk command now show this:

nvme0n1 259:0 0 476.9G 0 disk
├─nvme0n1p1 259:1 0 260M 0 part /boot/efi
├─nvme0n1p2 259:2 0 16M 0 part
├─nvme0n1p3 259:3 0 117.9G 0 part
├─nvme0n1p4 259:4 0 1.1G 0 part
├─nvme0n1p5 259:5 0 260M 0 part
├─nvme0n1p6 259:6 0 15.3G 0 part [SWAP]
├─nvme0n1p7 259:7 0 119.2G 0 part /
└─nvme0n1p8 259:8 0 223G 0 part /data

Partitions nvme0n1p2 to nvme0n1p5 are window partitions (nvme0n1p3 has the windows OS and the others came configured with the pc).. previous lsblk command showed something related to windows on those partitions. How can I fix grub so I can choose between windows and proxmox? what could happen If I reinstall the grub (following these steps https://www.simplified.guide/linux/recover-lost-grub)?
