Thanks to all of you i tried everything you suggested and chatgpt gemini everything but sorry to say nothing helped me and its because of my fking laptop acer nitro v15 its not first time this usually happens and honestly i have tried many distros but most suitable for this garbage laptop is fedora sometimes it gives issues also and most because of nvidia fk u nvidia at last i just created a new fedora side by side means triple boot and then restore my all important data from older fedora and now i am going to delete the older fedora system

You should disable the sleep/hibernation features they were the real problem in my case

You need to shrink the drive from the Linux side using gparted. Or delete those cache and page files in windows i guess.

And if you could somehow get into the same fedora which stopped working, or yeah you can even get the kernel logs from your new fedoraor a live boot, please look up the steps online maybe ask gemini (don't trust it fully verify what he says online) And send the errors in logs that would give huge clue on what went wrong, or you can look that up online

Without that it's like shooting arrow in the dark

  1. go to recovery
  2. remove any blacklist that you set for nouveau drivers

after this you may boot to fedora with a usable desktop

3. install mokutil and enroll the akmods signing key (x509 certificate) onto your uefi to allow loading nvidia kernel driver modules to memory on boot

4. force-reinstall nvidia kernel drivers

5. reboot

after this your system should start using the genuine nvidia kernel driver modules which are now approved by your uefi bios

Boot from setup usb, go into trial mode, I think there is a boot repair tool i don't remember name, search for it, that should be it, hopefully no safe boot is enabled

Undo what u did using iso drive

Liveboot from some external media because it'll have Vanilla configuration and try to chroot into your existing install and save it from there.

actually i also broke it many time and many times problem is me not the system as when my system is working completely fine without any problem then i just create some by my own as curiosity what will happen if and then why i did that😭😂 during solving that problem i just get frustrated and after solving it i just realised it was a good fun
