Issue/Introduction

Users get confused when seeing the boot menu in client computers with automation folders. No errror, functioning as expected.

Environment

Client computers with an Automation folder boot to a menu with the WinPE and WIndows OS options.

Cause

In order to boot to Automation or the local OS, a menu is created by the Automation folder utility.

Resolution

Edit the Bcdedit.exe adding the /timeout switch with a value of 0. It can be run manually on the client or if editing meny client computers, create a job with a Run Script task with the following code:

cd c:\boot\altiris\iso
bcdedit.exe /timeout Y  */where Y is the delay time for the splash boot menu 0 will not show the menu.

Sent it to the client computers with the Automation folders.
