Same for me

Wahnsinnige sind langweilig…

An @? ==> die so empfindlich tun.

Your fix also has helped me, one million thanks!!

After the XFCE update, grub stopped finding other O.S. Only Manjaro appears.
Any help to resolve this issue?

Kde Plasma, Kernel 5.11.2 works without problems.

You can find several posts in this thread relating to this problem for multi boot or dual boot e.g.:

I hope it can help you.

In what line or location do I have to write this command?
Iḿ running kernel 5.11.4.1.

GRUB_DEFAULT=saved
GRUB_TIMEOUT=5
GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=menu
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR='Manjaro'
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet apparmor=1 security=apparmor resume=UUID=423631f7-2276-43bc-b2b9-40ab5e1b518b udev.log_priority=3 audit=0"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""

# If you want to enable the save default function, uncomment the following
# line, and set GRUB_DEFAULT to saved.
GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT=true

# Preload both GPT and MBR modules so that they are not missed
GRUB_PRELOAD_MODULES="part_gpt part_msdos"

# Uncomment to enable booting from LUKS encrypted devices
#GRUB_ENABLE_CRYPTODISK=y

# Uncomment to use basic console
GRUB_TERMINAL_INPUT=console

# Uncomment to disable graphical terminal
#GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT=console

# The resolution used on graphical terminal
# note that you can use only modes which your graphic card supports via VBE
# you can see them in real GRUB with the command 'videoinfo'
GRUB_GFXMODE=auto

# Uncomment to allow the kernel use the same resolution used by grub
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep

# Uncomment if you want GRUB to pass to the Linux kernel the old parameter
# format "root=/dev/xxx" instead of "root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/xxx"
#GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true

# Uncomment to disable generation of recovery mode menu entries
GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY=true

# Uncomment and set to the desired menu colors.  Used by normal and wallpaper
# modes only.  Entries specified as foreground/background.
GRUB_COLOR_NORMAL="light-gray/black"
GRUB_COLOR_HIGHLIGHT="green/black"

# Uncomment one of them for the gfx desired, a image background or a gfxtheme
#GRUB_BACKGROUND="/usr/share/grub/background.png"
GRUB_THEME="/usr/share/grub/themes/manjaro/theme.txt"

# Uncomment to get a beep at GRUB start
#GRUB_INIT_TUNE="480 440 1"

Assuming KDE, do these show under Custom Shortcuts Service or Applications section in Shortcuts?

I put it directly under line 6. That worked for me.

These are under “Applications” section.

I don’t know if the location inside this file matters.
Probably @Hefty knows better than me, since I am more or less a newbie. But given that you can find this, I would say that you can these following two lines here:

# Uncomment to disable generation of recovery mode menu entries
GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY=true

# Uncomment this option to enable os-prober execution in the grub-mkconfig command
GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false

# Uncomment and set to the desired menu colors.  Used by normal and wallpaper
# modes only.  Entries specified as foreground/background.
GRUB_COLOR_NORMAL="light-gray/black"
GRUB_COLOR_HIGHLIGHT="green/black"

Since @kleinHeiti added under the line 6 and since it has worked for him, the place where you add it probably does not matter.

Click on KMenuEdit under Custom Shortcuts. Set them up there, then they should appear under Custom Shortcuts Service.

I have a problem, I can’t save, I only have the option to save as, because I opened the file with the mousepad.
How do I solve this?

The file is owned by root. You need to edit it with sudo rights. Go to a terminal and type “sudo nano /etc/default/grub”. Or use whatever editor you prefer.

Hello, I experienced the same issue with XFCE 5.10.19 and my dual-boot.
I don’t have time at the moment to fix it, I am going to wait for an update that fixes this issue, otherwise I will try @Hefty solution.
I’m using Manjaro stable for nearly two years now without experiencing any issues so far and that is great.
I’ve used the GUI update this time, maybe I shouldn’t…

For instance, if you are newbie too, I find that the graphical editor notepadqq is pretty easy to use when you need superuser rights. So you could open this file within this editor for instance, if the terminal solution given by @ParadingLunatic is too difficult for you.
