Warning: os-prober will not be executed to detect other bootable partitions

hi and for a few days that I notice that every time I perform an update I get this error Warning: os-prober will not be executed to detect other bootable partitions. Systems on them will not be added to the GRUB boot configuration. Check GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER documentation entry

It was set off by default in the last GRUB update, but then re-enabled shortly after via a pacman hook.
Everything should be working now, if your system is updated and you dual boot.

If still not working, check if for whatever reason you have GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=true in /etc/default/grub.
If so, just remove it and update-grub.

yes I tried but when I opened the GRUB file this string was not there: GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER = true

So, do you dual boot?
If not, you can disregard this thing.
If yes, can you still see the other OS's in your GRUB?
If yes, everything is working.
If not, Huston we have a problem...
:wink:
