Gigabyte motherboard BIOS no longer shows boot options

[link to this post]

So I have been playing with Linux USB live drives and also updated my Windows 11 to 24H2 which has had several updates this week.

Today when I came to enter my BIOS the boot options and boot override have disappeared.

Sent a ticket to Gigabyte which suggested clearing CMOS and reseating my M.2 drive which I have done without fixing the problem.

Any ideas how to get the boot options to reappear?

That could be the culprit. Anyway shortly after posting I decided to reflash the BIOS with current version and that has fixed it. Boot options and override have returned. Wish everything PC was as easy to fix.

Oh no. Windows was nuking multiboot over 20 years ago. You would think that they had learned that there is such a thing as multiboot.
