Hello,

I have trouble setting Windows 10 as default boot OS in Clover. I installed EL Capitan using UniBeast / MultiBeast without any problem. But for family reasons I need to have Windows 10 booting by default...

Both OS X and Windows 10 are installed as UEFI on separate SSDs. I tried adding the name under "Default Volume" in the config.plist but it does´t work. If I take the "Windows 10" partition directly, Windows won´t boot at all (naturally...) but just adding "EFI" as default volume does´t work either (most probably because I have two EFI partitions (one on every SSD). When I check the Windows´ SSD partition name via "diskutil list" it gives the name "NO NAME" but of course this did´t work either.

Does anyone have an idea? Unfortunately the simple solution must to switch out the timeout and have my wife press enter at the boot menu is no option and would result in weeks of dry bread and water...

Thanks for help in advance, best regards

I did the same myself this morning.

Put the UUID of the Windows 10 in the Default Boot Volume setting in Clover Configurator under the boot tab, then you have the timeout working :)
