Naperville, Illinois - Twocanoes Software has announced the release of Boot Runner 2.2 with support for the Windows 10 operating system. Boot Runner is the premier OS startup control manager for Macs to control boot state for native and virtual operating systems running on Mac computers.

Boot Runner 2.2 offers a customizable startup screen and remote boot control, ensuring Windows or other operating systems are available to receive critical security updates at the right time.

Boot Runner is an essential boot management solution for dual-boot Macs that delivers unmatched user and administrator control of system startup for a single Mac, a lab or a fleet of managed Macs.

Boot Runner scheduling enables administrators to ensure the availability of Windows or other operating systems during scheduled maintenance windows. Mass deployment of Boot Runner managed preferences or configuration profiles takes effect immediately, giving full remote and automated control of Mac boot behavior and state for all of the Macs under management.

The Boot Runner selection screen guides users to choose their system among the available startup disks. This selection screen is created by the administrator who uses Boot Runner to customize startup selections for their school or business with text and graphics.
