Confused - am I booting in UEFI properly - msinfo32 shows I am but..?

All my current PC's have a quick boot BIOS option. On my ASUS desktop motherboards it's F8, on my ASUS laptop its the Esc key. Pressing that key on boot up gets me a onetime boot device option. It will then list all the bootable devices it can find. If I have a bootable thumb drive plugged in it will be in the list. If it's UEFI capable it will have a UEFI in front of its description. I can then select it and boot to it that one time. On the next reboot it will default back to what ever was set in the BIOS originally. If I enter the full BIOS setup menu the options are different. Even the boot devices menu is different. In that menu there is no UEFI in front of a device entry. Any changes here are permanent until you go back in and change them again.
Click to expand...

What I can't understand is that with CSM off and Secure Boot on there are "NO" device entries in UEFI boot list other than "Windows Boot Manager"! They are in the Sata Information list but not in the Boot list area. See attachments:

3rd partition doesn't show on list at boot.

It can be done by running setup.exe from the sources folder of the mounted/extracted installation media.

select the edition

select custom and it tells you that can't partition during setup, you need to have the target partition ready before going to the next step.

That has been available since Vista. However, for enthusiats who want to select their own osletter and other fiddling about, the apply method is preferable.
