I mean in all fairness, the best way to install dual boot is to follow gohlip’s method, using a custom.cfg for GRUB where FS-UUID is the /boot/efi partition UUID. In this way you’ll know for sure that Windows UEFI firmware updates won’t “accidentally” rewrite the boot partition. It’s also the only solution I know, to install any arch distro on OEM locked UEFI laptops (namely Lenovo), where you also have to rename the Linux boot firmware file to the MS format, and place it instead of it, in order to cheat the bios into using it…

menuentry "Windows 10 x64" {
        savedefault
        insmod part_gpt
        insmod fat
        insmod chain
        search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=XXXX-XXXX
        chainloader /EFI/Microsoft/bootmgfw.efi
}

Probably, if this information was included in the wiki, we’ll see less antics from the antikas. (:
