Re: main menu cinnamon

what theme are using for the Cinnamon Desktop?
I’m using
System Settings > Themes > Desktop > Black Mate
Looks like that's the reason I can't change it.
Any way around that?

Re: grub does not see windows 10

thank you
update-grub does not see win 10
Another possibility is that Windows was installed in UEFI mode from the manufacturer and you installed Linux in Legacy mode.
that's possible . . . any way to fix it?
