If you have dual-boot as me, Ubuntu and Windows 7, and wish to have Windows 7 as default boot.
Edit /etc/default/grub file, and change the value below to the line of your Windows 7.
For example, my Windows 7 was at line 5, you need to put it as "4", as the numbering starts at 0.
GRUB_DEFAULT=4
Save and exit, remember to run below to make it effective.
$ update-grub
Now reboot and it should have Windows 7 selected by default.
