The idea is that the so-called Windows boot Manager at the start of the computer is presumed to appear only in the case if on Board there are two or more installed operating systems. However, this is not always the case. For the most part this may be due to the presence of one OS installed over another, which was not removed residual components. Of course, when transferring control from the BIOS to the operating system a choice of what of them you want to run. Here and triggered a “download Manager”, because not every user knows how to delete a boot record or partitions. However, even despite this, disable the boot loader. But first, let's look at what it is actually.

Download Manager “Windows”: what is it?

As is clear, this service is designed for choice of OS when you start the computer devices. It is compatible with all known OS and can download not only Windows, but UNIX-like systems like Linux. Should not deceive ourselves – on Mac OS X it is not intended.

download Manager

Nevertheless, and at the start themselves Windows systems very often have problems. Those leftover files that were not removed during the installation of the new system over the old one (or if you use to install the new OS in a virtual partition) “download Manager” first analyzes all launch records across all partitions (both physical and logical), and then prompts you to download a certain version of the OS. As is clear, it is quite inconvenient. Have to wait quite a long time, especially if the old file system was damaged, but still physically located on the hard disk.

windows boot Manager

In the startup window, you can perform (at least) two major steps:

  • Select bootable OS and use it by default.
  • Delete boot second operating system.

After you save the changes you have made “download Manager” are no longer being displayed.

System Settings

Also for convenience, you can use the properties of the system that is accessed via the menu right-clicking on the icon of a computer, there is a move to the boot options and recovery.

download Manager Android

Here it is sufficient to choose a preferred operating system to start, specify the time period display a list of all installed OS and save changes. It is clear that the set zero value, expressed in seconds, for the start OS the emergence of “download Manager” at the next restart of the system does not provide (if the system is really two or more). But if the computer is a virtual machine with another OS, to change these settings is not recommended.

Debugging from the command line

It is Much better to use the shell. End users work with it not like starting commands and executable processes too abstruse. But advanced users understand that the shell is almost the only salvation, even when critical system failures.

boot Manager Windows

In our situation you can do in two ways. The first solution is to log in via the loader in the selected system under administrator, run command line (always as administrator) and run the command bcdedit.exe /default {current}. Thus, the current used operating system for download will be installed by default.

The Second option also implies the use of the shell, but only in order to remove excess system proposed to start. Here is the string bcdedit.exe /delete {ntldr} /f. Current OS (which at the moment performed all the steps) remains unchanged, and the second (or its remains) is excluded from load.

Download Manager “Android”

Finally, a few words about mobile systems. Android devices take only as an example (“Apple” devices, the following functions are also available).

download Manager

In contrast to stationary systems, this applet is represented as a loader file, or starting the application from boot selection between Windows and Android that is found exclusively in the Chinese counterfeit smartphones and tablets. In the original devices, this function is not (unless the user has installed a second operating system, which is unlikely).

The applet Itself is just a means of tracking and control of downloading of files and belongs to the category of programs called downloadable (Downloader). In some applications meet additional capabilities in the form of a system optimization or a VPN module, but to peers Windows systems all this has absolutely nothing to do.

Roughly speaking, if two Windows on one terminal with a selection of different sections can be set in the case with smartphones or tablets based on Android such tricks do not pass. In General, if you offer an Android device with multiple operating systems on Board, can besure it's a cheap knockoff, since the original device will use only one OS.
