• Need help with installing Ubuntu as a dual boot

  From what I understand, the boot EFI partition has become corrupted. In this case The easiest thing to do Is to download ventoy and install it in a flash drive Then put in this ISO, boot it and do the repair Https://sourceforge.net/projects/boot-repair-cd/ If that doesn't work then I should rebuild the efi partition and then restore the bootloader.

• Does it make any sense to keep recovery partitions after formatting?

  If you altered the MBR but haven't deleted the recovery partition, you can make it bootable again by installing GRUB and os-prober (for example with the Boot-Repair disk). Depending on the type of recovery partition, it either comes up as "Windows Recovery Environment" or just "Windows 7", so don't confuse it with a standard Windows 7 installation.

• trouble installing deepin

  I had a similar problem when I tried to install neon on a btrfs formatted drive. I'm not familiar with uefi though.

• Installing dual boot

  Otherwise, what you'll have to do is image a USB drive with a partition management software or distro (e.g. GParted Live), boot from it, and then resize your partition from there. This does carry more risk of data loss than the dual SSD method, but it's more universal (you haven't mentioned if this is a laptop with more than one removable storage option or not, for instance), and it's unlikely to cause any harm....

• Can you install Chrome OS Flex as a Dual boot?

  I have a suggestion, follow the previously advised installation process to install CrOS Flex on a separate drive, then reconnect and enable the Windows disk through the boot menu, once back there you can install a GRUB manager under Windows, like Grun2Win, it's easy to install and set up, once you are all done, the final result will be easier to switch from one OS to the next, instead of every time going through...
