Windows 10: Compatibility of UWP applications between operating systems multiboot, not different/older...

First off, I have 3 OS's, Windows 10 21H1 on boot drive, Xubuntu 20.04 OS on boot drive, home partition on game drive, and an OS that changes a lot, right now it is an insider preview build of Windows 11 on game drive. Feel free to ignore the Linux install. In short, my boot drive has an EFI partition, Windows 10, a recovery partition, then a Linux install. For my game drive, it has a shared partition for stuff like games and downloads, then the Windows install that changes, a recovery partition, and finally my home partition yes I know I am lazy and probably should have symlinked every

Can two different operating system be installed on a system? Linux and Windows

Hello Harier,

Thank you for getting back to us with the status of the issue.

Yes you can create dual boot with two different Operating system on your system.

To do this firstly you need to have good amount of space on your system and also you have to create different partitions. Firstly you would need to install Windows in one partition and then Linux with other partition. Follow the below link to know how to
