[SOLVED] Cannot see Windows 10 in grub menu anymore.

Windows 10 always showed in my grub menu (alongside Arch of course). but, today i was missing with grub configurations and i can't see win anymore when i boot up, here's what i did:

GRUB_DEFAULT="0" to GRUB_DEFAULT="saved"

uncommented this: GRUB_FORCE_HIDDEN_MENU="true"

Used this skin: GRUB_THEME="/boot/grub/themes/Vimix/theme.txt"

and did this: GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT="true"

then i

sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

, rebooted and i didn't see windows, so i rewrote everything like it was before and used that grub config command before but there's still no windows
BUT i think i know what's the issue, i have been running on "fast boot = on" for a month now and i shutdown windows and did all these grub commands while this fast boot is on, so i assume windows is hibernating now? how do i fix this?

Re: [SOLVED] Cannot see Windows 10 in grub menu anymore.

Ok Update: i got Windows 10 to show up in the grub menu!...not sure if that's a good thing hehe

Jokes aside here's what i did: used that computingforgeeks link, did this:

sudo ntfsfix /dev/sda2

then i typed os-prober and updated grub config
wait that didn't fix it....yea that didn't fix it HOWEVER updating the grub config from the grub-customizer program did the trick and everything worked now lol
