Dualbooting windows and ubuntu (ubuntu is mostly working) and as in the picture, grub shows up in the boot order list as a bunch of gibberish.

Why is this? Could it hint at something wrong? How can I fix it even if just to make it look nicer?

I did have to restart the installation a bunch. Including once because it failed to create the partition, but the installation completed once that was done.

EDIT: I reinstalled grub and this persists so Im still curious.
