Grub2Win supports 64 and 32 bit EFI and BIOS on Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista and XP. Safely dual boot Windows and Linux. Grub2Win boots native, open source GNU grub version 2.02 code. Everything is contained in a single 14 MB directory on your Windows C: drive. On EFI systems a few small modules (about one half MB total) will be installed to your EFI partition.

Using the simple Windows GUI and instructions you can install Grub2Win quickly and safely. Boot time messages and help can be displayed in your native language. Select from a nearly unlimited number of OS choices. Samples for Remix, Android, Ubuntu, Debian, Suse, Fedora, Mint, BSD and Windows are included. You can enter your own custom commands for each menu entry.

Changelog

   Complete rewrite of the partition scan routines using low level disk reads.
   
   This allows Grub2Win to obtain label, UUID and filesystem information
   from Linux and Apple filesystems as well as Windows.
   
   I am working on a release of Grub2Win that will use this data to help build
   the grub.cfg file.
   
   For now, you can see the new partition data in the Grub2Win disk report.

                    Many Thanks Joakim!
   
   *************************************************************
   
   
   I have included code to handle most common partition types. If you encouter
   a partition type error message, please notify me so I can fix it.
