[Bug 1845289] Re: Grub EFI amd64 no longer start EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi

[Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre]

If you use F8 or F12 (or whatever hotkey to get the firmware's boot
menu); can you then run "Windows Boot Manager" and successfully start
Windows?

How was the installation done? Could you please describe how the disk
was partitioned for dual-booting, and the steps taked in the installer?

At this moment, I am unable to reproduce the failure. Here, dual-booting
Windows works fine.
