# Issue the command: '''cp &nbsp;&nbsp;/etc/default/grub &nbsp;&nbsp;/etc/default/grub.bk''' (just making a backup copy...)<br /><br />
# Issue the command: '''gedit &nbsp;&nbsp;/etc/default/grub''' (this opens the file in gedit application to allow you to make changes)<br /><br />
# Change the option '''GRUB_DEFAULT=0''' to correspond to that number for your Windows OS boot loader you determined in stop #1.<br />For example, ''GRUB_DEFAULT=7'' would relate to making the 6th menu item the default OS boot. This means that upon bootup, that menu item is selected as the default in case you press ENTER or the count-down ends to run that OS selection... <br /><br />
# Save and exit the file.<br /><br />
# Run the command: '''update-grub'''<br /><br />
