I'm trying to dual boot my new HP Omen 15.
At first windows 10 kept overwriting the grub so that it booted only into windows.
Then I followed some instructions - can't recall exactly what, but it involved moving EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi to EFI/Microsoft/bootmgfw.efi
Now I get grub, but when selecting windows it said that EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi didn't exist.
I copied EFI/Microsoft/bootmgfw.efi to EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi. That works.
Now after some reboots EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi is zero bytes and I have to copy it agin form ubuntu to be able to boot windows.
I'm sure if windows or Ubuntu is zeroing out EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi.
How do I get grub to boot windows without having to keep copying this file all the time?
