That is unusual for a modern system that uses UEFI. The windows bootloader may set itself as the default EFI program, but other bootloaders should remain in the EFI partition. It's just a matter of changing the default back to Linux bootloader.
If windows does wipe out other bootloaders, then it's something serious to be discussed. Are you sure that's what happened?
- gentleman11 5y agoIt’s not listed as a boot option in the uefi and never is. I always have to go in and do a repair after these updates
- sreevisakh 5y agoThat may be the fault of the UEFI implementation. Many are terrible - especially from the big OEMs. I keep rEFInd as my boot manager and let it deal with the rest. I also find a way to recover rEFInd if an OS sets its own bootloader as default. It may take trial of up to 5 different methods to find one that actually works.
