How to Add A Windows Partition to GRUB

A while ago, I installed Linux on my laptop along with Windows. I used GRUB instead of the Windows Boot Manager to switch between both installs. However, when Linux updates GRUB, it won’t detect the Windows partition and as a result, won’t add it to the GRUB boot menu list. So to fix this, we’ll need to install OS Prober.

Dual Boot Windows & Linux with Encrypted Hard Drive

I recently started moving away from closed source software like Windows and Google products. One of my latest projects is to move away from Windows OS as much as possible.

The main issues I encountered were that the touch screen doesn’t work and the WiFi doesn’t come back after the system is suspended.

So I setup all of my Linux servers to install updates, auto remove unnecessary dependencies and reboot the server automatically.
