hi
i used lick to do a dual boot with bionicpup and win10
When PC starts, i have the choice between win10 and 'lick boot loader'. Windows is by default

==> i don't succed to change this order, to get lick by default <==

'lick boot loader' doesn't appear neither in msconfig nor in c:/programs/lick/res/lickgrub.cfg, and i don't see any config files in the windows boot partition

an idea?

The information is here with a link to how to do it posted in the Murga forum.

lickgrub.cfg should be the boot loader config file you want to edit. Well maybe.

i confirm, the usb stick windows installer (mediacreationtool) allows to change the default boot (via 'repair the computer')
in lickgrub.cfg, there is only the entry for windows, and set default with 1 doesn't change anything

So you actually want the lick boot loader menu to show first.

Try doing the change this way:
