When I boot on Grub i have LinuxMint (its advanced option too)
then Windows, then Ubuntu (its advanced option too) and finally UEFI

IDK why Ubuntu popped up ... when i boot to it its just Mint
any help to remove or hide that dupe?? (i only have windows and Mint)

you may have had some old (or current) Mint /'buntu install

#

if you're sure (1000%) there's only 2 OS living on your drive or drives, then sudo update-grub will adjust itself accordingly

#

my advice is TEST BOTH that u see now.

#

the linuxmint entry AND the ubuntu entry. and if and when you enter their desktop , do inxi -S in terminal each time and note the precise info.

they both link to load the same thing it seems

#

yep boot 0002 is the current and valid entry

#

just leave it.

you could try the boot repair app from the live usb but it'll reset ur grub theme

#

if it's bugging u let the boot repair tool fix it
