This question already has an answer here:



  • Unable to boot into Windows after installing Ubuntu, how to fix?

    18 answers



I made clean install of Windows 7, left some space unallocated on SSD and during subsequent Mint 18.3 install with default "Alongside" option did not got Windows in grub boot menu.



I write this mainly duplicate because the solution was simpler than in other questions I found here, see my answer.

  • @karel, I made clean install of newest Mint and got problem. The solution is simple and in such shortness is not documented in suggested link and IMHO is valuable to new Mint users. Fill free to edit or delete if consider otherwise.

  • Karim Mokhtar already posted the same answer there: askubuntu.com/questions/217904/…. It's a good answer. Somebody should give it another upvote like I did. I read your answer that you posted here was how I knew it was a duplicate question.
