Never happened to me and I've been dual booting for a couple of years already. On the other side, updating linux mint from 20 to 21 made my printer not work despite installing and reinstalling the drivers many times ( tried the driver from the official website, random scripts from GitHub, nothing works). It's pretty dumb having to boot crapdows (it takes 20 minutes to just boot no joke and i freaking debloated that shit the day i installed it.) to print anything and it's basically why none of my family wants to deal with linux.

Just a thought, no idea if it would work for your situation, would you be able to use a Windows vm, that way you wouldn’t have to reboot?
as the "it takes 20 minutes to boot" implies, the computer is pretty weak. 4GB ddr3, HDD and a i3 4xxx.
