    This will cause a Linux machine to reboot directly into the UEFI.

    That’s weird, on my machine it reboots me directly into the BIOS.


    Sidenote: if you dualboot, I can’t recommend enough setting up a desktop entry which runs this command:

    systemctl reboot --boot-loader-entry=auto-windows

    It’s basically a one-click Windows launcher.

      I tried it but nothing happened. Mainly because I wouldn’t let Windows touch bare metal anymore for anything.

      Excuse my ignorance, but what’s the difference between this and GRUB?

        You have to interrupt the boot process to make a selection in grub, the one-liner above makes that one-time selection for you in advance. So you can walk away and get a coffee while your computer does the OS switch.
