I have an HP laptop with Windows 10 and a 1TB external HDD. The HDD already contained 300GB worth of data, and I want to install Ubuntu on the empty space. I shrank the volume in Windows and created partitions with GParted in the Live USB. I tried to follow many tutorials online but none seems to work and Windows always automatically boot up. My objective is that whenever I boot up I get to choose which OS to use. I turned off secure boot and fast startup.

Current partitioning of the HDD. Captured using Ubuntu installed on the HDD

EFI check on HDD and Ubuntu. Source: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI

Please help. Thank you

Update: I tried to change to boot order in BIOS. Didn't work. https://i.sstatic.net/KlIEk.jpg

Your Ubuntu is installed on the external hard drive. But your 1st boot device is still the default HD i.e in which window is installed. So you need to make the external hard drive as 1st boot device from bios configuration.
