GUI for Boot Manager

EFI Boot Editor is a free and open-source utility that presents you with a graphical user interface for any of your Boot Manager modification desires.

Easily manage configurations

Opening the EFI Boot Editor will greet you with a neat and intuitive user interface wherein all of its main functions can easily be accessed in the left corner. Its user-friendly dashboard is able to provide you a preview of the Windows Boot Manager along with EFI UDB devices, Network, and DVD / CDROM. You can utilize this program to view the description, path, category, global setting, and attribute status. 

Here, you can effortlessly know if certain attributes are active or hidden. All of the same information is accessible even in other formats like HEX, BASE64, UTF-8, or UTF-16. When implementing modifications, there are some tasks that you should do beforehand to ensure seamless customization and safety of your system files overall. This includes creating a restore point before proceeding to modify. 

It’s an important step so if there are any alters applied that you don’t like, you can go back to the previous settings with ease. Having an administrator account is suggested but not a requirement as you can encounter some files that need this authority before you can ever perform changes. Keep in mind that a high technical knowledge is necessary when using its services.
