Reboot the computer - F2 to enter set up (or whatever yours maybe)
Under "Configuration" I have an "EFI Boot Order" to which I can set the default... In my case its Ubuntu and Windows Boot Manager ..

I set to Ubuntu aka Linux Lite and allow grub to manage the 2

Hi, pressing keys on my computer doesn't enter into BIOS / setup. Tried everything. Then I tried various ways to get into the UEFI boot order that article suggested after doing a Google search, but none worked. Frustrating!

You may also be able to go into BIOS in the UEFI section possibly but look for booting/order..
You can usually set the default - set to LL/Ubuntu...

Hi thanks for this. Can you explain a little further please? Do I do this in Windows? And what exactly do I need to do? Thanks so much.

Hi, trinidad, thanks for the reply. So I'm very new obviously. It is UEFI, version is Windows 10 version 10.0.19042 Build 19042

Did you mean to type that into the command prompt? And in Linux Lite is that called "terminal emulator"? Anyways, I did that, and it asked for my password but it wouldn't let me type anything. I clicked on the white box but nothing. Screenshot attached, help appreciated. Thanks. *well the forum won't let me attach the screenshot as it's png.*

I don't quite understand the second part of your response re. mounting Windows partitions from Linux. Is there an easy way to access my files in Windows from Linux? If not I'll just DL them from Dropbox.

Thanks
Adrian
