Hi KMD Tech, I have a HP Laptop with Windows 11. I used this laptop to install Linux-Mint on a "San Disk USB-drive" (please note I am not installing the Mint on HP laptop but a USB drive). So I got hold of two USB drives (first one is this "San Disk USB-drive" and to start with it is blank (no data on it) and second one is PNY USB-drive), I used Rufus to copy the Linux-Mint on PNY. Now on my switched off Windows laptop I plugged in PNY (it has Mint) and plugged in "San Disk USB-drive" (it is blank). I switched the Windows laptop On, I go into PNY and see the Mint Desktop in "try Linux Mint" mode. I click on install Linux Mint, I chose "San Disk USB-drive" as the target to install Mint. The Linux Mint was installed perfectly on the San Disk USB-drive. But now the problem is I am not able to boot into Windows on this HP laptop and I have to plugin the "San Disk USB-drive" (that has Linux Mint and the Windows Boot files (I hope I am saying it right!)) to choose which of the Linux-Mint or Windows I should boot into. Linux Mint is ok, because I wanted it on San Disk. Now without San Disk USB-drive the Windows is not starting, I have to have San Disk every time to start Windows. Please pardon my limited knowledge of EFI, Boot Mgr, GRUB etc. Can you pls guide me How to rectify this ... that is bring the Windows Boot Information back to it's EFI Partition on Windows. Thank You !

Failed trying this on my own. Couldn't get the dual boot to work on this old Win 10 Asus. Followed your instructions carefully. No worries. Worked like a charm. Thanks for the video. BTW, it's a bit difficult trying to read the typing info from a screen while installing. If you could include a script with all the Terminal commands it would be great to print it out and have it ready to go. I was worried I'd mistype and screw things up. Cheers.

You lost me after you opened up a terminal and started typing things. Unless I can SEE a GRAPHCAL representation of what's going on, I have no clue.

can you delete the line enabling OS_prober from the etc/default/grub file again after installing? as its flagged as a security risk and is therefore disabled by default? will grub still find both operating systems on boot?

Didn't work. I am on a Lenovo laptop, I followed step by step, with the same results until i rebooted the system. Straight up ignored Linux, went directly to Windows and even when i changed the boot order It went straight to windows. (I did all this process with secure boot disabled, and It still didn't work) I'm really sorry, i've been trying for a week to install Linux Mint. Even this did not work, and gave me the same results as the other metods. It's actually a very well made tutorial, btw

Just in case if someone can't load windows after installing linux with prohibited by safe boot followed by no such device:[your device] and error unknown filesystem. Disable the safe boot in your uefi i install this at 3 am and it gives me heart attack when i can't load my windows :'D

Whenever I load up Linux Mint no matter if I am on Legacy or UEFI mode, no EFI partition shows up for whatever reason. Can someone help with this?

Yep, you can use another drive that is fine. I just had the C: drive so I shrunk it from there.

you're the best. monkey-level "tutorials" are killing me. sharing internet technology with other countries were a mistake. as well teaching them English language.

Word of caution doing this, Windows has done updates and wiped my grub menu leaving me to have to figure out how to restore the grub menu to get back into Linux. Forget Windows and just go with Linux!!!! IMO

Yes, Microsoft is known for removing anything not related to Windows in the EFI partition after an update so it's recommended to create and use a separate EFI partition for Linux.
