grub asks for password for booting windows in dual boot setup
Sun, 06/21/2015 - 11:20
There is agrub superuser password setup in /boot/grub/grub.cfg and makes booting Windows impossible. I had to look inside grub.cfg to see the password and enter it to boot to Windows. By default grub should not set the password or entering password should not be required for booting windows.
PS: And the issue tracker is also broken hence adding here.
### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/01_PASSWORD ###
set superusers=grub
password grub 26073
### END /etc/grub.d/01_PASSWORD ###

Try....
1. Make the /etc/grub.d/01_PASSWORD file empty (or remove it). (You need Sudo)
2. perform sudo update-grub from the terminal.
