,0x499028,0x8000)..BOWell, I never saw such an entry with “VenHw”, but the entry is wrong. That could be a bug of your UEFI somehow or it is a bug of efibootmgr.
Try to create the entry yourself with efibootmgr? Since i have no details about your system, I give you an example:
sudo efibootmgr --create --disk /dev/nvme0n1 --part 1 --loader "\EFI\Manjaro\grubx64.efi" --label "manjaro"
You can delete an entry with:
sudo efibootmgr --delete-bootnum 0001
I used the command to create a entry and set the disk to the efi partition /dev/sda3, but when i rebooted i was in windows again and efibootmgr -v now shows this

and when i use the sudo efibootmgr --delete-bootnum 0001 command i get You must specify an entry to delete (see the -b option).
ok it is a bug.
- Update your UEFI to the latest one.
-
sudo efibootmgr --delete-bootnum --bootnum 0001
Delete all entries of manjaro and recreate them. This have to be done inmanjaro-chroot -aand keep sure efivarfs is loaded:ls /sys/firmware/efiand the efi partition is mountedls /boot/efi. - If that does not help, then file an issue on: GitHub - rhboot/efibootmgr: efibootmgr development tree . Note your UEFI, your verbose entries and the version of efibootmgr.
I think your system is installed aa a BIOS/GPT system.
While the following is not quite an answer to your issue - it may give you a pointer in the right direction Manjaro is installed, bios recognize harddrive, harddrive first in boot order, boots to windows anyway
\WINDOWS\system32\winload.efi means i have a UEFI system right?
Can you give more detail on step 2 i dont really know what i need to do

manjaro-chroot -a
grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --bootloader-id=manjaro --recheck
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
Also remove these flags here: swap, legacy_boot

How do i get gparted?
And when i installed manjaro i gave the efi partition the boot flag and i gave the swap partition no flags, why does it say i have them now?
gparted or kparted should be installed by default on the Live ISO. If not:
pamac install gparted
No idea who or which program does this. It could be calamares somehow or Windows.

I think legacy_boot flag could be set when you boot in legacy BIOS mode. Could be a sign you mixed BIOS and UEFI somehow.
When i use the pamac install gparted command i get Error: target not found: gparted
It is KDE? right? Then just type sudo kparted and enter. It start. (or gparted)
Still getting the same error
That is bad… I believe any official ISO has gparted or kparted installed.
Update database:
sudo pacman -Sy
Install then:
sudo pacman -S gparted
