Grub-Customizer; My 2¢ Worth...
***WARNING!*** Controversial and potentially upsetting content--proceed at your own travail!
I recently got (once again) "taken to task" for having the temerity to suggest a member use *Grub-Customizer*\--with once again the same plaintive outdated references to the [6-7-yo web ramblings of self-declared "experts](https://easylinuxtipsproject.blogspot.com/p/grub-customizer.html)".
Here's what I know and have experienced re: *Grub-Customizer*:
=================================================== *Grub Customizer* is often maligned; nearly always with reference to an [undated critical review from 5-7 years back](https://easylinuxtipsproject.blogspot.com/p/grub-customizer.html), reporting on *Grub Customizer v5.1.0-2* (the current version is *v5.2.5*).
However; it's developer addressed those issues almost immediately and it's been stable, quite competent, and recommended by many distributions (["*DDG*" it](https://duckduckgo.com/?q=grub+customizer&ia=web)), for quite a while now.
The primary focus of the critique, the “*three new folders*” misgivings are obsolete—these folders and their contents are working “scratchpad” data for *Grub-Customizer*’s processing—they no longer represent any embedded modification of the system’s GRUB processing; and may in fact be deleted with no impact on system booting.
*I have done this and uninstalled GC (after, of course, a TS snapshot to cover my hind-side) and re-booted seamlessly;*
Again ("*Easy Linux*"" people please note), these folders are exclusively "*working folders*" for GC, They are **NOT integrated in any way** with the system's GRUB process!
The only impact will be on *Grub-Customizer’s* functioning, it will “error-out” on launch; the folders will need to be restored from your recent backup, or *Grub Customizer will need to be freshly reinstalled*.
The system will boot quite well after removal of the heinous folders, and even after uninstallation of *Grub Customizer*
Why those at [*Easy Linux Tips Projec*](https://easylinuxtipsproject.blogspot.com/)*t* have not removed or updated the obsolete critique is a mystery--perhaps testimony to the unwavering and perpetual certainty of their opinion?
I have used Grub Customizer v5.2.5 installed via the Software Manager since made available with zero, zilch, nada problems of any sort.
If anyone has any *contemporary* conflicting experiences I'd be pleased to discuss same.
