@harrymc I wasn't aware BootRec will cause issues with GRUB and I've edited your answer with a whitespace so I can switch my downvote to an upvote

| Feb 10, 2021 at 16:53 | comment | added | Joseph Chataignon | The disk is formatted as GPT, I'm not sure about EFI but I have an option about UEFI in the GRUB booting menu. I don't have a Windows installation media (I tried to create one but it didn't work, I might retry). | |
| Feb 10, 2021 at 16:25 | comment | added | harrymc | Does your computer use EFI, and is the disk formatted as MBR or GPT? Do you have a Windows installation media? | |
| Feb 10, 2021 at 15:51 | comment | added | Joseph Chataignon | I tried it but still the same blue screen. For some reason I don't have the option "place the boot flag on", but I added the boot flag on the efi fat32 partition with GParted | |
