it's stored on the EFI system partition in EFI/ubuntu-grubx64.efi on your hard drive or embedded in the motherboard chip. when you open BIOS, the Ubuntu entry should appear there, but it keeps showing up even after removing it. you mentioned trying various methods like VisualBCD and another tool, as well as using admin rights with cmd, but it persists. since you're only running Windows now, let me know if this helps or if you need further guidance. thanks for your patience!

It's stored on your hard drive. The BIOS still retains the old settings even though the drive isn't powered on. Don't be concerned. What issue are you aiming to address?

Are the older entries in the BIOS editable? I’ve heard the old boot settings might make dual-booting tricky, but I’m not sure. I want to check if I can delete that option before starting the Linux installation for dual use. It’s also a bit annoying to worry about whether something should actually exist.
