I am dual booting Windows 10 and Ubuntu 18.04. How to tell grub not to show the boot menu and boot directly to Windows 10 by default?
What should I do if I want to boot to Ubuntu 18.04 instead of the default Windows 10?

The file /etc/default/grub contains a line:
GRUB_TIMEOUT=10
edit the file and make the 10 a 0 to hide the grub menu. You may force the grub menu by holding down a key, shift or tab.
Making Windows the default may be done by renaming the file
/etc/grub.d/30_os-prober to /etc/grub.d/06_os-prober, so it gets run before the 10_linux file.
sudo mv /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober /etc/grub.d/06_os-prober

This may not work for multi-boot environments, os-prober will reset GRUB_TIMEOUT to 10 if more than one OS is found. See askubuntu.com/questions/117525/… . The default OS could be set with GRUB_DEFAULT instead of renaming files in/etc/grub.dalthough that is possible.

@mook765 Hi, that means once i set GRUB_DEFAULT to Windows10 and GRUB_TIMEOUT=0 grub will not be shown and it will boot to Windows10 and if at any day i want Ubuntu menas i can hold down the Shift or TAB as soon as switch on the System. is that rite?

@PRATAB I don't think it will work, see the link I provided. There are a few lines in/etc/grub.d/30_os-proberwhich will reset the timeout to 10 seconds if more than one OS is found.
