Installing rEFInd on Dual Boot Windows 10 Machine - Super User I use rEFInd as bootmanager - this is screenshot: As you can see the selected OS is the middle one and text says Boot Microsoft EFI Boot from ESP This will then start Windows on Disk2 partition 4 Were I to select the left hand one it would say Boot Microsoft EFI Boot from EFI and start Windows on Disk0 partition 3 (see partitions below)
Unable to boot into windows 10 with rEFInd (solved) If I'm right, you can try editing refind conf (usually in boot efi EFI refind or boot EFI refind): Uncomment the scanfor line and add hdbios to the options This will tell rEFInd to activate its support for booting BIOS-mode OSes You'll probably get one or two gray diamond-shaped icons when you boot, one of which should boot Windows
