    There’s no way Windows would just access non-readable partition

    I knew that was true back in the day, but I haven’t tried dual booting in a long, long time. Also, I wouldn’t put it past Microsoft’s current incarnation to “accidentally” decide that that “empty” partition would be great for virtual memory and the hibernation image.

      Oh Windows knows this is the EFI partition, there is a flag for that. Windows just doesn’t care when it decides to nuke your bootloader with its own…

      And yes, it’s still happening…
