Have you updated UEFI and SSD firmware?
Many have needed those updates, even new systems.
Many AMD systems also need changes to UEFI setting for IOMMU.

It looks like you have Windows installed on sdb.
The erase option only erases the drive you install into, not all drives.
Note that Windows confuses drives with partitions. A drive should be sda,...
If UEFI system, do not use CSM.
With Rufus use the UEFI/gpt option which creates an installer that only works in UEFI mode. Other tools may make an installer that will work in both modes.

UEFI requires an ESP which is FAT32.
But you are using MBR(msdos). UEFI wants gpt, but if a drive already is MBR, Ubuntu will not make you change it to gpt to prevent data loss.
Windows in UEFI...
Rufus creates a UEFI only UEFI/gpt or a BIOS only CSM/MBR installer.
Did you create the UEFI version?
Other install tools create the installer that can be booted in either boot mode UEFI or...
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.
Most desktops do not need a...
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...
There is also this experimental version:

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.

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:

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...
