A rewrite of https://gist.github.com/Darkhogg/82a651f40f835196df3b1bd1362f5b8c#file-windows-refind-next-boot-cpp to avoid a compilation step.

1. Download all files in the same directory
2. Run in an Administrator PowerShell:

. path/to/RefindNextBoot.ps1
Set-RefindNextBoot Linux

Issue

If you installed Timeshift from the AUR package (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/timeshift/), you'll find that scheduled backups may not work. This is due to cronie being disabled by default.

Fix

Check if cronie is present first:

systemctl list-unit-files | grep cronie

Reboot to {OS}

This a collection of notes and files used in my quest to create "Reboot to Windows" and "Reboot to Linux" scripts (and desktop shortcuts) for Linux and Windows respectively that automatically reboot my system and instruct rEFInd to auto-select the appropriate OS entry.

General Information

The key for achieving this is to modify the EFI Variable PreviousBoot with GUID 36d08fa7-cf0b-42f5-8f14-68df73ed3740, which rEFInd uses to store the last entry selected in the menu and, if using the + default entry, will be used to select the default OS. By doing this, we trick rEFInd into booting the OS we choose without having to be physically there to press the keyboard.
