Subject: [Bug 1767703] Re: Calling 'apt-install grub-efi-amd64-signed' failed

To get a working dual boot, you have to install both operating systems in the same mode.
Of course, if you have a lot of time and patience, you can reinstall Windows. Reinstalling Ubuntu in the same mode as Windows is normally the faster way.
