I tried it once more. rEFInd does appear at power up from hibernation. This time, I noticed that rEFInd seems to be using a different configuration: instead of automatic boot, as per my running config, a 20 sec timeout is shown (which does not run, as we are already discussing here) The point is that I can only find one other refind.conf file in my disk, in a folder named AA1DD412-5B27...something in C:\\ . It has the same structure the main EFI system folder, but different contents. However, editing...

If I set e.g. timeout 20, at boot it shows 'Automatic boot in 20 seconds', but then nothing happens. I do suspect EFI implementation on my machine is rather "weak", but I'd be happy to try and investigate this more in details with a debugging version of rEFInd, in case.

When I trigger hibernation in Windows something rather weird happens. I have rEFInd configured to boot automatically Windows, unless a key is pressed at power on time. So, when I power on my laptop after hibernation, Bitlocker recovery screen is shown, asking to enter encryption key. If I do nothing, after some 20-30 seconds the laptop switches itself off. At following power on, though, machine boots automatically to Windows, loading the hibernated state. Any idea what the cause is and, most of all,...

I'm rather thinking about some inner problem with rEFInd to be able to count elapsing time, anyway here's my .conf file (it should be almost identical to the default one; I did some editing but I should have reverted most of that). # # refind.conf # Configuration file for the rEFInd boot menu # # Timeout in seconds for the main menu screen. Setting the timeout to 0 # disables automatic booting (i.e., no timeout). Setting it to -1 causes # an immediate boot to the default OS *UNLESS* a keypress is...

I am facing a rather weird problem. If I configure rEFInd via its .conf file to immediately boot with default OS (i.e. setting autoboot timer to -1) everything works fine, including diversion to alternate boot loader if I keep the proper key pressed (e.g. 'G' to get grub used instead of Windows boot loader). On the contrary, if I set a real timer value (i.e. >1) rEFInd screen shows up, with default OS icon selected and automatic boot timer prompt shown, but noting happens. System boots only if I...

a small tip: if you want to pass to iCopy only the folder path and let the application...
