Background: I've finally gotten my dual boot behaving properly after a bit of work but I have one last wish.

Problem: I can now use the Startup Disk pane in OS X to tell Clover to boot Win 7 and it works fine. When I'm in Windows, is there any way I can do the reverse to get back into El Capitan?

Proposed Solution: I know the Bootcamp software comes with a Windows equivalent of the Startup Disk pane from OS X, is it possible to just install this?

Cheers!

You can install it. Whether it works or not is a bit iffy. Results are not consistent build to build, so YMMV.
 
Hmph. Is there any other possible way to change the startup disk via Windows? I need it for remote purposes.
Not that I am aware of. You can boot/reboot Windows remotely, but I do not know of any way to change it to reboot from windows into another OS.
 
Hi ellissitzky,

Were you able to find a solution for this?
I am having the same one last wish.
All I want is to boot windows or to boot sierra all from remote,
via Microsoft Remote Desktop in windows or from Screen Sharing in osx respectively.
