About this tag
The grub os prober tag covers discussions about dual-boot configurations where GRUB fails to detect or properly list installed operating systems. In a recent thread, a user migrating from Windows 10 to Fedora KDE encountered repeated issues with os-prober not recognizing their Windows installation during GRUB updates.
