First off, sorry if this isn’t quite the right community, I did try posting on !pop_os@lemmy.world but didn’t get a solution. You can see that post here

I have my computer set up to dual boot pop!_os and windows on separate drives. I have my UEFI set up to boot into pop OS and I use systemd-boot to load windows, however after booting to windows and restarting my UEFI boot preferences are changed so Windows boots first instead of pop os.

I have fast boot and secure boot turned off in the bios and fast boot turned off in windows. How can I prevent this?

    I understand now. I now have a pop OS boot entry, and it’s set as first boot priority. However, I’m still having the original issue of windows putting itself first on the boot priority after rebooting from windows.

    Edit: after another reboot the pop_os boot entry I just made has vanished

    • If the boot entry vanishes, something funky is going on with your UEFI firmware.

      I’ve had this issue and the only way I could fix it was to factory reset the motherboard. I think something corrupted the UEFI variables and broke its ability to take new boot configuration.

      I don’t think either Windows or Linux can fix this for you, unfortunately.
