I'm in the same boat as Rok (post: https://www.freecinema2022.gq/forums/insta.../#msg15616), I do not dual boat with Windows.
I would start this journey by looking into chainloading the Windows bootloader. Something like this:

Also you might want to have a look at this:

Please do NOT install GRUB2 to your Windows boot partition! In my understanding this would overwrite the Windows boatloader you need to boat Windows and that should get chainloaded via GRUB2.
Hopefully someone with more practical experience will join the discussion soon
Thanks LL-User,
Did you see my post in the other thread?
I found out why I didn't have a grub boot menu..... this might work for you.
You have to install Grub-Customizer first. Then start it and check your grub config.
Here is the text from my other post:
Hey guys, just wanted you to know that I found the reason for not having a boot menu screen at startup.
I installed "Grub Customizer" so I could take a look at the grub config.
It turns out that it was configured for no menu, and a boot delay of 0 seconds. Meaning that there would be no boot menu and it would boot directly into the default OS.
I enabled the boot menu option and put a delay of 3 seconds.
Lo and behold, the boot menu now shows. LL is the only item on there at present.
I'm still trying to figure out how to add windows to the menu. If anyone has any input I'd be appreciative. My Win10 install is on another internal SSD. In Gparted the boot partition shows only as boot, no eufi. Not sure why it doesn't show in grub2.
But anyway, the grub menu issue is resolved.
Hope that helps you. I will wait to see if anyone can help my situation.
In the meantime I will just boot windows from the bios boot option screen.
Thanks!
Len
