I haved installed dual windows10 on my computer. One thing make me exhausted is that I need to stare at the screen every time when I turn on my computer. In most cases, I will choose the same OS. But I cannot find the way to set the boot manager to remember my last choice. Especially when windows10 updating, it will reboot many time, and I have to stare at screen, wait to choose boot item, make sure don't miss any of them.

    Type msconfig in search box to call out System Configuration interface.
    Move to Boot tab, set the usual-used Windows 10 as the default OS.
    Next, go to System Properties, Advanced, Startup and Recovery, Settings, uncheck Time to display list of operating systems option.

    Hello,

    The only option for dual boot that is provided is to set a default OS. You can set it either using System Configuration (msconfig) or via System Properties (sysdm.cpl). Unfortunately, there is no setting to remember the last boot selection, AFAIK.

    Regards.
