Dual boot worked find for years before UEFI. When MS went to secure boot
in Windows 8 it became a major PITA to dual boot before the Linux
distros caught up.

 
Dual Boot has always an unstable, fragile PITA. Thankfully we have
Virtualization now which has Dual Boot mostly obsolete.

With the caveat that Windows seldom sees the light of day after installing
Linux I haven't had problems with dual boot beyond the initial setup.
Defraging Windows was the biggest problem.

It's been a while though. I have access to Windows boxes so there is no
reason to bother. "Use the whole disk?"  "You betcha!"

The Windows boxes all have a WSL instance anyway.
