Cannot boot windows dual boot -- is this a grub issue?

I just installed Fedora29 on my brand new HP laptop. The installation went fine, and Fedora comes up fine. However, I was trying to install it as a dual boot machine, and the Windows option does not come up either with a "normal" grub bootup or when I choose boot options in BIOS. THe box has hyb

Windows Dual Boot

For reasons connected with LyX development, I need to install Windows 10 on one of my machines. It is already running Fedora 27, and my intention is to install Windows 10 on a separate SSD. I've not done this in a long time, and, as I recall, in the past, it was by far best to install Windows first

Run my windows dual-boot install in a window in f17
