Success!!  I finally fixed my Thinkpad.  

I did something stupid then more and more stupid to fix it.  

It runs Arch Linux with efistub booting.  I messed with the EFI partition.  
Then tried to restore the backup but got the trailing / thing wrong in the 
cp command.  Which I didn't realize at first.  Instead I thought I needed to 
recreate the EFI boot entry for Arch, so i deleted the old one.  
I figured out that the efi partition had files in the wrong place.  After putting that 
right Windows would boot.  Unfortunately I had already deleted the Arch 
option.  
I had trouble with recreating the efistub https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/EFISTUB
I kept thinking the instruction had backticks and Arch would boot but not load 
(blank screen)  I thought I was messing up the partuuid in the command.  

Now with the command using single quote it works!!!
