    Time to display list of operating systems


    This setting keep reverting itself back to the default 10 seconds. Can something be done?

    If only one OS, uncheck the box. If you want a better bootloader for multiple OS's, there are some good ones out there.

    It's easiest from msconfig > BOOT.

    It is a multiboot

    These all seem to go about doing the same thing with a different method. Is one more effective than another?

    I could check the msconfig setting "Make all boot settings permanent", but what exactly would that confine me to, since there is no going back?

    I changed the setting to 60 seconds check in msconfig > boot, but when I go back to Startup & Recovery, it still says 10 seconds

    but OP has to run the msconfig tool with admin privileges or the changes won't stick. goto Windows\System32 folder, right-click on the msconfig.exe file and choose Run as administrator

    must also run a command prompt with admin privileges first before using that command
