Just because one is unable to get whatever she is using to compose a reply according to standards automatically doesn't excuse one who knows better from conforming. Apologizing, particularly while continuing to not conform, does not excuse.

" As explained by Brian on 2016-09-13 15:40 (UTC+0100), first came Jessie, then came Windows 10, and an apparent solution has since been provided for those who choose to install a Debian version younger than Windows 10. It does seem curious that the Debian installer would need knowledge of a particular Windows version in order to provide a boot menu selection for it, rather than simply having one that says "Windows", booting from whatever non-native/NTFS filesystem it happens to find containing anything resembling boot sector code. Should you be game to try installing Jessie again, you might try a network installation started via a Stretch installer. Possibly (I haven't tried, and not only do I have no interest in kicking either of my sleeping dog Windows 10s, I'm exclusively responsible for primary bootloader maintenance on all my computers, and rarely allow os-prober to run.) the os-prober shortcoming that troubled you might be avoided in such manner. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
