The only issue I had so far was that Mint wouldn't boot because Windows didn't actually shut down as instructed but went into default quick-boot mode, which made the Windows partition unmountable, which by default causes the Mint boot to fail. No other problems so far.
I had some issues with UEFI during install as well, but it worked out somehow.
Also, it seems that you can still feed the Windows 10 installer a Windows 7 key. I wanted Windows 7 initially, but the computer wouldn't have it.
- pritambaral 10y agoDid you set the Windows partition to automount in `/etc/fstab` in Mint? That would make Mint think that that mount is part of the system, and since the system isn't entirely available, the boot cannot proceed. I suggest you add `nofail` to the mount options, and `nobootwait` on older that Ubuntu-16.04-derived Mint (doesn't run systemd) and `x-systemd.device-timeout=1` on Ubuntu-16.04+-derived Mint (should run systemd)
