Linux Lite not booting when I turn computer on

[adrianhouse78]

What version of Windows 7,10 or 11?
UEFI or legacy install?

You probably just need to unhide grub, comment out # the GRUB_HIDDEN lines in /etc/default/grub, save the file, and then update grub. You can also lengthen the timeout in grub so the grub screen stays up longer, and you can choose which operating system boots up first though its best if you are using Windows and allowing Windows updates to leave it set to boot Windows first.

You can mount Windows partitions from Linux and access Windows files from Linux Lite but not vice versa. Windows explorer does not recognize ext4 file systems. *You don't sound ready for powershell so I'm not going to explain it.

Code:

sudo nano /etc/default/grub

Hi again, yes so I managed to put that into the terminal and a bunch of stuff came up. But I didn't know where to write the "comment out # the GRUB_HIDDEN lines" that you suggested. I wanted to attach a screenshot but this forum won't allow me to attach the png file. Thanks a lot for any tips you have.
