mbezzo Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 This is so bizarre to me - what causes the name change on the EFI folder? Quote Link to comment

The trailing ~ character is removed if you state that you want UEFI boot capability when creating the flash drive. You can also do it manually at a later stage to enable UEFI boot capability.
