UEFI entry disappearedview story

https://bbs.archlinux.org – You can probably get your regular boot manager back from Windows with its bcdedit command (typed in an Administrator command prompt window), as in:bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\refind\refind_x64.efiThat example sets rEFInd, in its default location, to be the default boot program.
