I have in fact never had or seen this problem, and I'm quite bewildered by so many people having it. Do your normal windows updates do it? Or transition between major Windows versions? Or is it just a Win 11 problem?

I've pretty much always used a dual boot Win/Linux laptop, since around Vista, and I'm on 10 now (but only use it for a few games; all important things in Linux).

I'm not sure how it is now, but when I was still dual booting I had the same problem until I got a separate drive for Linux instead of just using different partitions of the same drive.

Funny enough, I think the only time I've run into bootloader problems on a single drive, it ended up being Linux that broke my Windows boot. Typically Windows leaves my EFI partition well enough alone during updates.

Same here. I even updated to windows 11 and it kept the GRUB bootloader. Partition for both is on the same SSD. Somehow got lucky, I guess.
