You can see swap partition with this:
sudo parted -l
or this which also shows UUID if a partition.
lsblk -f
Swap mounted by fstab:
cat /etc/fstab
If swap partition it will be something like...
Not recommended.
And renumbering often causes issues for anything that is using device like /dev/sdX.
Most now use UUID, and that should not change, but if that changes, you have major issues.

I have installed grub to flash drives by itself, in both old BIOS and newer UEFI modes.
But had to totally do the grub.cfg boot stanza myself as grub does not have an install with the additional...
There is a lot of RISC-V info. That may be a new processor that gets used if price comes down.

You will still only have one bootable system.
You cannot have duplicate UUIDs mounted at same time. If actually mounted, it may use one partition, one time & next the next time, totally getting them...
I have not done a conversion.
Not sure if just installing the UEFI version of grub is all that is needed, I think it may need grub-install.
I think it will want to know the ESP - efi system...
Do not mix an ESP which does have boot files for UEFI booting, and has to be FAT32 with a /boot partition which has to have a Linux format for kernel & boot files.

A bios_grub is only required for BIOS/CSM/Legacy installs on gpt partitioned drives. It normally is 1MB and must be unformatted.
UEFI & BIOS are not compatible.
Once you start booting from UEFI...

Post details and any info on settings you may have had to make.
Then others can find thread and it will help them.
You show UEFI system with both Windows & Ubuntu installed in UEFI mode.
And Boot-Repair booted in UEFI mode, but it seems to say at end it would do a legacy/BIOS install which is wrong.
From UEFI...
If you look at boot repair report it has a Windows BCD setting.
Some systems sync BCD with UEFI, so whatever is in BCD will be UEFI. That may be why booting Windows resets boot order.
There are...

I think your description entry has too much. It should be just what os-prober would have grub menu show.
Probably just

That then is all per the defaults.
If you want it mounted anywhere else, you have to specify in fstab.
I do not like Disks as it may not use correct parameters. Better to use template/example and...
I do not know if it is going to show anything or not, but run a new copy of the report from Boot-Repair and post link.
Do not run any suggested autofixes.
My partitions:
fred@z170-focal-k:~$ lsblk -o NAME,LABEL,PARTLABEL,SIZE,fsused,MOUNTPOINT | egrep -v "^loop"

Change this as also shown in tea for one's version:
GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden
to this:
GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=menu
sudo nano -B /etc/default/grub
Control x and save when exiting.
File browser now creates new mounts in /media/$USER, it used to not include the user.
So if you created a partition with the label backup, it would auto mount to /media/$USER/backup.

UEFI & BIOS/MBR boot on same drive is not normally possible.
Windows in BIOS mode requires MBR partitioning and must have boot flag on the primary NTFS partition with its boot files.
But UEFI...
I did not see this in your Boot-Repair summary report.
Post this in code tags.
cat /etc/default/grub
Besides UEFI Secure Boot setting are multiple other UEFI settings. Most do not matter and it varies by brand.
On my Asus motherboard I change 7 or 8 settings, some required & others optional.

You show an ESP, but if Boot-Repair cannot see it, it must have some issue.

Did Windows do an UEFI update & you have a default UEFI setting that secures or locks...
