I've installed Ubuntu with dual boot - but my system now boots into Linux by default. Any ideas how I can change this to default to Windows 11?
I'm not clued up on linux and haven't got to the copying UT file bits over. It's just I sometimes use RealVNC and want it to boot to Windows as default...

RealvNc is also available for Linux:

Off the top of my head I believe you have to press F8 or F6 to bring up the boot menu, during power on or hard reset. If you've got the OS's on different drives/partitions you can just select your boot preference in your bios [del] key on boot.

Piglet:
For me it's delete of F2 to get into the bios and then select the drive I want to boot from (if it's not the default one).

Annoyingly if I want to boot to Linux I find that I have the default set to windows - so after a few boots I get round to changing it. Then I want windows a few times in a row. Rinse and repeat...

dk uk:
Thanks for all the answers.
I've changed Bios to boot into Windows - I was just hoping that I could select Windows as default using the Linux boot menu (Grub?)

I suppose it's no great hardship as I'm likely to be infront of my PC on the ocassions I need Ubuntu...

Piglet:
You should be able to set Windows as default in grub:
