I've snipped it, but thanks very much for all the good info in your |
| 34 |
post. Before your post, I'd gotten bogged down in bcdedit.exe |
| 35 |
documentation, and that resentful attitude had overwhelmed me. You |
| 36 |
post makes a lot of it clearer to me than Microsoft's documentation did. |
| 37 |
I'll file it away for a rainy day when I tolerate wasting some of my |
| 38 |
life on it. |
