Hi Skyh3ck,
It appears that the window 10 was not detected in the first place by the grub installer, this may be due to a number of reasons. I would suggest to
1. Install os-prober (sudo apt-get install os-prober) and run it
2. Run update-grub, It should show the windows, if not please post back here.
If you get a chance please post the ouput of lsblk and your grub.cfg file. And did you change anything in bios(secure boot, UEIF, MBR, etc) when you installed Kali Linux?
Sorry did not read you couldn't boot into windows .
So BCD is not useful .
Use grub customiser .
You have to manually enter the ppa etc .
Look it up in Linux forums .
i did os prober and update grub thing, it now shows windows 10 in the boot menu, but when i try to boot to windows 10 it just hangs for long time
only kali is working
i have reinstalled the Windows 10 as my primary os now

also i downloaded kali and made a bootable pen drive with rufus, but i am not having live kali option only install and that too takes 3 hours to install
Hi Skyh3ck,
First things first, 3 hours to install dosn't sound right but then there might me something else so I need more information on your system configuration, medium used as installation source.
Regarding using Kali on virual machine, you can get a copy of the same at offensive-security.com and regarding the wifi adapter, I need its make and model number to see if they are supported, without which I cant say.
Regarding the live version, I dont know why that is the case, are you sure you got the live version?
Hi Skyh3ck,
Regarding Live version, the second download link at https://www.kali.org/downloads is the one you are supposed to get ( Kali Linux 64-Bit (Live) at 2.9GB) not the installer one.
Regarding the time to install,
1. Did you try to install every package in the installer?
2. Did you connect to internet to download any packages during installation?
3. At what stage does your installation takes the longest? During the installation press ALT+CTRL+F1 and see what is happening, this will give you an idea, there are couple of reasons that might be at fault.
Regarding installing Windows, Kali Linux, Ubuntu Linux, the first is to install Windows(as you have donw), then you can install it in any order, it dosn't matter bacause the grub is the same in both the distributions.
Regarding the wifi card, it appears your card is supported so try it first on the live version and then decide.
In this article, we are going to guide you on how to dual boot Kali Linux v2021.1 with Microsoft Windows 10. Dual boot means running two separate OS in the same HDD.
