Editing "Time to display recovery options when needed" timeout value using a program
- by chandra
Hi all,
I want to edit the timeout value of 'Time to display recovery options when needed' without using the UI display option.
To navigate, Right click on 'Mycomputer' - Properties - Advanced tab - click on SETTINGS of 'Startup and recovery' = 2nd displayed check box.
The value thought to be in c:\boot.ini file, but it has value of other timeout 'Time to display other operating systems'. After some searching, i found that 'c:\windows\bootstat.dat' file holds the timeout value for 'Time to display recovery options when needed'... but, i am not able to decode the .dat file or edit that file.. any suggestions would he helpful for me..
Thanks in advance
