My GF recently said I can install Linux on her laptop. Then I saw Windows broke dual boot systems.

Is it safe to do a dual boot if she already has the update that broke dual booting?

Should I just figure out how to install Windows in a VM for her?

Appreciate any insight y’all can offer

    It should be safe, although for the future, I’d recommend installing the os to a completely separate drive and changing boot device by uefi.

      That’s what I did on my wife’s pc, and she’s had no issues with the dual boot BS Windows has created.
