Ubuntu 20.04 Installation does not detect Windows 10 is already installed

Hi
I wanted to install Ubuntu 20.04 next to Windows 10 (on 2 different NVMe
SSDs) but the Ubuntu installer is not detecting that Windows 10 is already
installed and does not show the option for a dual-boot installation (

https://www.tecmint.com/install-ubuntu-alongside-with-windows-dual-boot/).
My BIOS/UEFI settings are shown here: https://imgur.com/a/4UevIlz (images 1
to 4).
Image 5 shows Windows Disk Manager's view of the drives.
Images 6 and 7 show Rufus settings used for burning the Ubuntu ISO onto a
USB stick.
Images 8 and 7 show Ubuntu Live's view of the disks.
The last image shows the "Installation type" screen where I was expecting
to see the option to install Ubuntu alongside Windows 10, but that option
does not show.
On the live media, lsblk detects both NVMe drives:

ubuntu at ubuntu:~$
Any idea what could be causing this and if somehow I can make Ubuntu
recognize that Windows 10 is already installed to offer an option to setup
dual boot?
