  1. Timeout Missing From Windows Boot Screen


    I have a Windows 10 machine that is dual-boot. Using bcdedit, I modified the boot settings so that the legacy boot screen appears showing both boot options instead of the blue Windows 10 screen. The problem is that even though I have the timeout set to 20 seconds, no timeout appears on the boot screen, and I have to physically make my selection and press "Enter" to continue, otherwise it will sit at that screen forever. I haven't found anything on the internet that shows that anyone else has seen this. This same PC with the same boot options worked when it had Windows 7 installed. Any idea why the timeout disappeared and how to get it back?

    :)
