Boot your Windows like Linux

Hi Friends!

Heartily apologies for not posting/sharing tricks. You know this week, kinda busy(just kidding!)

Let's rock and roll. Today, we are going to learn to boot your Windows like Open Source(which drivers, processes, executable are being loaded into memory and in what order) instead of the blank screen with the cursor blinking at the top left corner.

Step 1: Press Windows+r to open run

Step 2: Type msconfig and hit enter

                                           
Step 3: Click on the second tab: Boot


Step 4: Check OS boot Information 


                                        
Step 5: There's actually no step 5. We are done, now restart your system.

You will view all the system information while booting process is taking place. For OS freaks, this is kinda cool, to know which one is the parent process in Windows. See this screen for better visualization.
