Probably the last comment here: since 24.04 is really unusable on this hardware, I have tried other distros, and Debian shows the same problem. Fedora, however, is probably sufficiently far away, and Fedora 41 works properly here. 
So there is no alternative but to say "Good-Bye" to Ubuntu after 15 years. 
(I still do think, and hope, that some developer will look into this matter. It could be a single bug in the end, because everything that fails has to make with BIOS / UEFI in the end.)

Title:
  grub upgrade 18.04->20.04 loses dual-boot to W10

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  (Summary says it:)

  Upgraded by dual-boot kubuntu 18.04 to kubuntu 20.04. After the restart, dual-boot was gone, and it boots directly into kubuntu. 
  I guess it is a problem with grub, because the boot menu doesn't show. However, the 'lenovo' shows trice, while it used to show once with 18.04; followed by the grub boot menu. 

  I guess that the MBR was written into haywire?
