Question. I deleted windows.old and thought that this might take care of the option to boot to Old Windows (that is paraphrasing) as the system starts up, but it has not. How can I get rid of that so the system just boots straight in.

How do I get rid of Boot to Old Window on startup?
The easiest way is to download Vista Boot Pro and use it to remove the option from this list.

Windows.old does not have anything to do with your boot options. Your boot options are based on Vista Setup detecting a bootable non-Vista Windows partition. Windows.old exists because you did a Custom Installation on a partition that had a previous Windows system.

Where is this feature in Vista? Before you could click a button to edit the file, but now that button is gone.

Follow Jimmy's advice. BCDEdit is not an easy option to use.
