I installed Linux Mint on a different drive for a VM setup instead of dual booting Windows. The drive was cleaned using disk tools in Windows, which removed the OS and formatted it. I need to remove the boot option from my BIOS but can't locate it. When I try booting through that option, GRUB appears. I can use Windows fine, but I want to eliminate that boot entry. Your ROG motherboard gives a good idea of what the BIOS looks like.

Check the timing around 1:30 to clear the outdated loader from your EFI drive

Another option is to restart with a live Linux distribution and then employ `efibootmgr` to remove the entry.
