Anybody knows as when I boot up LL the grub menu shows and I do not want it to show up.

It usually won't show if Linux Lite is the only operating system installed. If you need it not to show, you can edit the grub file. See the following link: http://askubuntu.com/questions/111085/ho...ng-of-boot

I do not feel comfortable editing grub.cfg by hand. I know there is a grub mod tool but I do not know how to use it. Just for helping solve the problem this is the grub.cfg file:

Code:
# If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update

# /boot/grub/grub.cfg.

# For full documentation of the options in this file, see:

#   info -f grub -n 'Simple configuration'

GRUB_DEFAULT=0

GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0

GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true

GRUB_TIMEOUT=10

GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -d 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""

# Uncomment to enable BadRAM filtering, modify to suit your needs

# This works with Linux (no patch required) and with any kernel that obtains

# the memory map information from GRUB (GNU Mach, kernel of FreeBSD ...)

#GRUB_BADRAM="0x01234567,0xfefefefe,0x89abcdef,0xefefefef"

# Uncomment to disable graphical terminal (grub-pc only)

#GRUB_TERMINAL=console

# The resolution used on graphical terminal

# note that you can use only modes which your graphic card supports via VBE

# you can see them in real GRUB with the command `vbeinfo'

#GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480

# Uncomment if you don't want GRUB to pass "root=UUID=xxx" parameter to Linux

#GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true

# Uncomment to disable generation of recovery mode menu entries

#GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true"

# Uncomment to get a beep at grub start

#GRUB_INIT_TUNE="480 440 1"

Is there a way to fix this without editing grub.cfg

You can install Grub Customizer by copying the following lines into a terminal one at a time. But really if you're already at the grub.cfg file, you can just change the 10 in the line "GRUB_TIMEOUT=10" to a 0, save the file, and run "sudo update-grub" in a terminal, and you'll be done with this.

Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:danielrichter2007/grub-customizer

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install grub-customizer

Grub Customizer is a great piece of software, that I wish was included with Linux Lite. I hope that will be considered some time. Has bailed me out a few times. the only suggestion I would add is that after you add Grub Customizer, remove the repository.
Linux Lite Control center > Software > Edit software Sources. Under the 'Other Software' tab, highlight it (danielrichter2007) & remove.

Changing it to a 0 did not work. Actually it made it worse.

Hello? anybody Home?

Have you tried changing hidden timeout from false to true?
As explained here

The code is on the third post
