I've been using Linux for nearly 15 years, 13 of those dual booting. Dozens of systems from laptops to desktops. Windows would always purge the boot entries. I'd have to manually fix booting, constantly. This happened with Ubuntu, Arch Linux and recently NixOS and through all the Windows editions till 11. I had to install Windows for a lan party recently and lo and behold on the second day NixOS is gone from the boot list and unbootable. Nothing of value is lost when it gets purged, but it's a damn annoying tax to pay just to be able to play video games.

Luckily gaming now works well enough that the only reason to use Windows was gone. Well, apart from some online games played during lan parties.

Likely just unrelated user issues.
