    Can that actually happen like this? If Windows killed the bootloader wouldn’t that mean that you couldn’t boot into Kubuntu either? Or can it somehow kill the bootloader when the PC is turned off?

      ish. if your boot priority is set to windows first and it decides it needs to repair the bootloader it can wipe other oses from the boot order.

      What definitely did happen to me is I booted into windows, shut down, on the next startup there was no more grub menu, just instant boot into windows. (Separate physical drives).
