Can't register Grub into my boot menu | Dual Booting

Hey there! Thank you for taking your time to read and respond to this post!

I just recently installed Windows alongside Arch Linux, and tried to reconfigure Grub. It seems to work, but when I go into my BIOS boot menu, I only see Windows and my hard drive. I would like to be able to see Grub in my boot menu.

Things I've tried:
-Disabling fast startup [Windows]
-Running "grub-mkconfig - o /boot/grub/grub.cfg" while chrooted into my system
-Reinstalling Grub via boot-repair
Things I haven't tried:
-Manually reinstalling Grub
-Manually entering Grub into my boot menu

Any advice on how to fix Grub?
Thank you for any replies in advance!

Re: Can't register Grub into my boot menu | Dual Booting

I fixed this a while ago and forgot to close this, sorry.

I forgot about my boot folder being in a partition.
Not completely sure how I fixed it, but went something like this:
Reinstalled Grub in boot partition (I hadn't been mounting my boot partition)
Re-configuring Grub
