Why skipping Grub menu doesn't work?

Question

I want to skip the Grub menu when starting my computer.
I edited the settings I found here

But it didn't work, which part of my settings is wrong?

GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true
GRUB_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""

After this do sudo update-grub – Prvt_Yadav May 07 '18 at 13:00 — Prvt_Yadav, May 07 '18 at 13:00

According to info -f grub -n 'Simple configuration' you can also set

GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden

instead of the following, which are (or will be) deprecated:

GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true

Don't forget to apply changes when you're done:

sudo update-grub

I changed 0 to 0.0 and it works.

GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0.0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true
GRUB_TIMEOUT=0.0

I think this might be a bug on Grub. – Ives May 09 '18 at 13:32
