[SOLVED] Arch gets booted automatically after GRUB welcome message

I'm running Arch and Windows on UEFI with GRUB as my bootloader.
Previously I was able to select Windows or Arch Linux but suddenly Arch gets booted automatically after I power on.

I think it has something to do with me trying to enable hibernate through the steps on this page https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Po … _swap_file
But I backtracked through all those steps and reversed the changes I made in the /etc/default/grub file and the mkinitcpio.conf file and regenerated the grub.cfg file and the initramfs.
The Grub config even has entry for Windows.
I even reinstalled GRUB and created the cfg file with os-prober but still no luck.

I would really appreciate some help. This has been bothering me for a while (though I can boot Windows through the boot options).

Out of curiosity, what's the timeout and timeout style of /etc/default/grub?

Thanks. This was it.
Don't know when I set it to 0 instead of 10.
