The boot list choices are Legacy or UEFI. I did not change from Legacy to UEFI. I just looked at the UEFI options, but I did not save anything. Also, I made no changes to BIOS/UEFI during the install of LL 7.2.
When all I had was Windows 10, the choice was Legacy - and that's the way it is still.
My goal is to turn on my computer and come to a screen allowing me to boot to either Windows 10 or Linux Lite 7.2. My most recent backup includes all data files. I can see one option which is to download a Windows 10 iso file to a USB stick, reformat my SSD (fat32 or NTFS ???), install Windows 10, validate Windows 10, and start over. Should I be looking for a sticker on the hardware with the validation code? If there is a better way to get to my goal, please tell me what it is.
