Luckily it’s usually an easy fix if you know your way around the UEFI. Just plop grub back where it needs to be in the boot order.
Although I definitely wish Windows didn’t mess with the boot order occassionally.
Also, finally, I dual-boot and I haven’t actually had this happen in about a year now. I think maybe Microsoft finally stopped fucking around (with this one thing).
EDIT: Actually, it could be because I’m on Windows 10 and they stopped “Feature Updates” and all I get are security updates now. That could be why they stopped fucking with my boot order.
What users consider “Features” and what Microsoft considers “Features” are wildly different. I’d say that probably played a role in it.
Honestly, the only useful “features” in Windows I’ve found in the last few years were all provided by a non-standard Microsoft app that isn’t easy to find: PowerToys.
PowerShell is nice too, but it’s not new enough to be considered a “feature” anymore.

Same here, I was wondering why my days were so (relatively) calm as of late…

I had to put a password on my bios to get windows 10 to stop messing with my boot order.
Smart.
I can’t recall a single feature from any feature update being added.
