MenuDefault

Index
Used to set a default option with a timeout in a Config.sys menu.

Syntax

MenuDefault=blocktitle[,timeout]
MenuDefault=blocktitle,0
MenuDefault=blocktitle
blocktitleThe title of the block in Config.sys to be executed by default.
timeoutThe time (in seconds) to elapse before the default commands are executed automatically. Valid values are 0 to 90.
If timeout is 0, the menu is not displayed and the default commands are executed without a choice.
If timeout is not specified, the blocktitle is highlighted but not executed until the [Enter] key is pressed.

Notes

  1. The MenuDefault statement can only be used in a [menu] or [submenu] block in Config.sys.

  2. If timeout is specified with an invalid value, it defaults to 0.

See Configuration Menu Statements for example.
