  1. Windows 10 boot menu after Linux Mint uninstallation


    Hi,
    I installed Linux Mint alongside Windows 10 some time ago and tried it for a while. When I decided to remove Linux Mint from the laptop, I deleted the disk partitions it was installed on. Even though Linux Mint is deleted, it is still shown as an option on Windows boot menu when I start the laptop. How can I remove Linux Mint from the boot menu completely so the laptop boots directly to Windows as it used to do? Thanks..

    :)

  3. How to Dual Boot Windows 10 with Other Versions of Windows, macOS and Linux

    I am trying to install a Linux Mint Distro (Linux Mint 18.3 "Sylvia") in my computer, running Windows 10 Pro.

    It doesn´t matter which way I choose (allowing Mint to setup the system, or making it mannually), what I get is a system that always runs Windows 10 and there is no way to run Linux Mint (just from a USB drive), as the boot loader comes from Microsoft with
    no way to introduce Linux Mint on it. I purchase EasyBCD and no result with it.

    What did Microsoft do in the last updates?

    Previously it was very easy to create a Dual boot system, but now, there is no way.

    Some help will be appreciated.

    Please, don´t submit me to:

    How To Dual Boot Linux Mint And Windows 10 [Beginner's Guide]

    How to install Linux Mint on your Windows PC | ZDNet

    or any article from Andre Da Costa because after the latest Windows 10 updates, there is no way to install a Linux Distro.

    Thanks and Regards

    Windows 10 boot menu after Linux Mint uninstallation

    • Open an elevated command prompt
    • Type bcdedit /enum
    • Locate the GUID for the Linux entry They look like {14105cca-1b7b-11e6-8afe-e38650dc991f}
    • Then delete the entry with bcdedit /delete {14105cca-1b7b-11e6-8afe-e38650dc991f} , substitute in your GUID
