However, thankfully, anyone who dual boots Windows 10 with Windows 7 can save themselves from the menace that is the graphical bootloader by simply switching to the classic Windows 7 bootloader (or the Legacy bootloader). Yes, that’s right, it is entirely possible for you to switch to the beloved text-based bootloader from Windows 7 that provides you with a list of installed Operating Systems from which you can choose which OS you want to boot into. Replacing Windows 10’s graphical boot manager with Windows 7’s Legacy bootloader is a pretty simple process, and the following are the exact steps that you need to perform in order to do so: Right-click on the Start Menu button to open the WinX Menu or Hold the Windows Key and Press X Click on Command Prompt (Admin) to launch an elevated Command Prompt.

Note: To switch back to the graphical bootloader, simply repeat steps 1–4, but, this time, type the following into the elevated Command Prompt:
