Windows equivalent to efibootmgr?

Question

Windows keeps overriding the UEFI boot order even if I change it with efibootmgr from Ubuntu. However BootNext option is not overridden, that is, I can set BootNext to Ubuntu and it boots into Ubuntu upon rebooting. I, therefore wrote the following script to run every time I boot into Ubuntu :

efibootmgr > file.txt
CURR="$(grep "BootCurrent" file.txt | grep -Eo "[0-9]{4}")"
efibootmgr -n $CURR
rm file.txt
exit 0

This ensures that I can boot into grub when I reboot from Ubuntu. Is there a way to do the same from Windows so that I can boot into grub when rebooting from Windows?

EDIT :

Running bcdedit /v gives (No Ubuntu entry):

Solution 1

On Windows you can use "bcdedit /enum firmware" to list all firmware applications, then "bcdedit /set {fwbootmgr} bootsequence {xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}" to set BootNext option.

Solution 2

Don't you have to create UBuntu loader similar to {9b4692db-d6e1-11e6-8040-f733056555ec}?

Basically the ubuntu node should be changed from boot manager to boot loader app. Then have a boot manager at EFI\Boot\bootx64.efi.
Create a {bootmgr} node for boot manager. Set its displayorder to include both the guids above. Then set the default value for {bootmgr} to ubuntu guid. That should make ubuntu item sticky across reboots.

bcdedit changes the Windows loader, while efibootmgr in fact modifies UEFI. Windows loader may refuse to load what UEFI will happily do.
