I have an issue with changing bios settings of the boot order
As you can see in the attachment Linux options are shown as asterisks(*) instead of os name like "Manjaro", so I am afraid to move up these options since I am not aware of any issues this might cause, help me to bring normal options where it should show Linux os names or bootloader name like "grub" or confirm if I can set these * options as first in the boot order.
Kindly see attached photo of bios boot order settings.

    You can safely move them up the boot order. If Manjaro or Windows won't boot, you can always re-arrange them. However, it does not look like Manajaro was properly installed alongside Windows. How did you make the Manjaro installation media

    Hi JackE, I have used rufus tool with default GPT to make the bootable device, also it boots properly when I tried manually using boot menu, I will try to switch that `****` to up.

    The * thing was messed up somehow, got it upward and it boots so I guess no issue with that, thanks
