First off, sorry if this isn’t quite the right community, I did try posting on !pop_os@lemmy.world but didn’t get a solution. You can see that post here

I have my computer set up to dual boot pop!_os and windows on separate drives. I have my UEFI set up to boot into pop OS and I use systemd-boot to load windows, however after booting to windows and restarting my UEFI boot preferences are changed so Windows boots first instead of pop os.

I have fast boot and secure boot turned off in the bios and fast boot turned off in windows. How can I prevent this?

    I’m a little confused about what I’m meant to be doing in this part

    You’ll need to find the partition number and the reference to the disk in /dev for your boot partition /dev/disk/by-partuuid/172a0183-3a89-4b78-b1b3-d016ca6675f7. You can try using ls -l /dev/disk/by-partuuid/172a0183-3a89-4b78-b1b3-d016ca6675f7 to see where it points (i.e. for /dev/sdb2 you would use --disk /dev/sdb --part 2).

    I also, get this error “invalid numeric value Y” when trying to manually register systemd-boot

      lsblk -o NAME,SIZE,MOUNTPOINTS,UUID try this command, it will show you what partitions you have on the machine then modify previous command with correct labels and UUID

      sometimes you need to modify the command
      sudo efibootmgr --create --disk /dev/sdX --part Y --loader “\EFI\systemd\systemd-bootx64.efi” --label “Pop_OS” --unicode
      /dev/sdX --part Y needs to be replaced with correct labels for partitions, If you are lost just paste the output of the lsblk -o NAME,SIZE,MOUNTPOINTS,UUID command
