I have read that early UEFI versions of some vendors had hardcoded path
to windows loader. Another variant is loader installed to "removable"
path EFI/Boot (in additional or instead of EFI/microsoft) and firmware
tries EFI/Boot with higher priority.
From linux:
efibootmgr -v
ls -l /boot/efi/EFI/{boot,debian,microsoft}
I have a decade-old HP laptop that boots from EFI/Boot. (Or using a
custom boot entry with path to shimx64.efi created from the firmware
setup menu that is less convenient.) It has never had windows installed
though.
