OS Selector creates additional Link for Windos Pro 8.1 after shutdown

Thread needs solution

Hi ,

I installed a 3rd Operating System on my ACER V3 571-G Notebook. It was the new Windows Pro 8.1 OEM . The Installation was successful . After the shutdown with the restart Option Acronis OS Selector created a Win 8.1 Icon with language german . Everything seemed to be alright .

But if I started any of my 3 Operating Systems , Windows 7 Pro , Ubuntu 12.04 or Win 8.1 Pro the OS Selector created one more Win 8.1 Icon but with language english and so on every time ! It's possible to delete those Icons and it seems to me everything works correctly . But in my opinion OS Selector works not correctly . Maybe I'm wrong , but I don't know ?

Is there anybody who knows about it ?

You're not wrong -- OSS doesn't work correctly. You could try hiding the bad/incorrect entry instead of deleting it. Sometimes that will work and OSS will let it be. Other times it will just keep adding them.
