More than once did I spend (lose…) long minutes on google to find the proper syntax with windows bcdedit command line.<\/p>\n

I came with the quick batch below that will set different entries : win7, winpe, grub4dos, etc …<\/p>\n

You need to edit the batch to set the path to your BCD store.<\/p>\n

Beware that the BCD is overwritten each time.<\/p>\n

Note that this is greatly (mostly) inspired from this page<\/a>.<\/p>\n
