Best way I’ve found for a dual boot system is to have Win and Mint installed on separate SSDs. That takes a lot of potentially troublesome issues off the table. That’s how I run my utility laptop.

I don’t use MS anymore at all. But I have many different distros and optional whole system with storage independent external drives. Cool thing about Linux is you can install a whole system with storage onto a USB drive and run it from that as it’s own independent machine, it just borrows the hardware. Swapping these drives is like swapping machines.
