Dual-Boot (Windows sadly) not showing in Grub & SDDM Theme help

Issue 1: I have 2 SSDs. 1 has Windows (sadly I need it still because Unity Engine is not behaving on Linux), and the other Bazzite. I cannot see an option for Windows in GRUB. How do I solve this? I tried what I knew how to do from Arch and got nowhere. The workaround for now is to manually select Windows via BIOS. Issue 2: https://github.com/catppuccin/sddm How do I install this considering that /usr is read-only (the theme goes into /usr/share/sddm/themes on traditional distros)?

Solution:
Looks like it's possible to specify an arbitrary directory for the themes already with SDDM: https://github.com/sddm/sddm/pull/1739#issuecomment-1914118894 As for installation of the dependencies and such, can probably reference this (though note the caveats): https://docs.bazzite.gg/Installing_and_Managing_Software/rpm-ostree/...

For Grub, should just be able to run ujust regenerate-grub

Were you able to figure out the theming?

Oh shoot I just woke up and saw this. Had no idea you could do this with SDDM. I'll mark this question as solved once I hop on my Computer! Thanks a million!

I can confirm that the listed issues have been fully solved! Thanks a ton again, I did not know you could have custom SDDM Theme locations + that ujust command is super handy (I tried using grub-mkconfig -o which works on Arch but wasn't a thing here).
