You can keep only grub on the USB so windows can't touch it. Avoids all those issues since the main install remains on the SSD.

Personally I just boot windows from usb. Rufus has the ability to install it there

This is a pretty good idea, my wife dual boots and I'll suggest it to her as Windows keeps trashing the EFI partition.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
