    i think they are Phone apps, there is lots of other WP stuff too. maybe running WP apps natively will be supported.

    What is weird is I had Ubuntu installed before the upgrade and I still can switch between the two after the upgrade. Since I use UEFI and Secureboot, I have to select my HDD manually from the BIOS list (2 entried for my HDD) to show the Grub menu, but it launches just fine.

    Here I had W8.1.1 and wanted to make a clean install W10 and Linux(I have here several distro's)but I was not able to make them working together...all Linux installers can't see W10 loader that is the issue.I use ''classic'' BIOS and ''normal'' HDD.(I am not enough advanced user to make such things manually.)

    Actually, it is often time advisable to install Windows first before installing your Linux operating system. The grub will definitely modify the way OS accesses the BIOS. So if you are going to run a dual boot of Windows and Linux you'll have to know how to debug grub when such error emanated. What I think the problem is has nothing to do with Windows, it is in your prerogative to use BOOT REPAIR(if you installed Ubuntu) to fix the error. It rests more on the Linux OS than the Windows.

    That is the cause. You have to turn off the 'Secure Boot' in your BIOS before you install the Ubuntu. Make sure to install Ubuntu last. Don't forget to create Swap space during partitioning of your HDD.

    When I played with Multi-OS-Installs in the past there was the option to install Linux within the Windows-HDD and if you wanted to boot into Linux, then you just used a Boot-Disk and for booting into Windows you just did it without the Boot-Disk.

    I'm not sure if it's still possible to do it that way.
