Can anyone smart help me out? I tried to clone my drive and the stupid ass program installed another boot thing. I was able to remove the options in the list, but now I have to wait or hit enter to boot windows 10. Fucking annoying.

Go into Bios to set the default startup partition.

Thanks. The boot order is already set to windows boot manager> C: system drive. Setting it to just the C: (minus WBM) fails to boot. Uefi is msi.

The issue is a partition was put on there by Macrium. I deleted it, but the windows boot manager is now borked and now I have to manually select windows 10 or wait for it to time out. This adds a lot of boot time, and it's annoying.

Have you looked at "System Configuration" (just type it in the Windows search box)? There's a Boot tab that should allow you to set a default or remove others.

Yup. There's nothing there (set to win 10 default). This problem is insidious.
