Skip Boot Menu Fails

I temporarily disconnected hard drive with 2nd OS so wanted to disable the boot menu until I needed to reconnect it. Under the Edit Boot Menu Tab I checked "Skip the Boot Menu" but, on reboot, it appeared anyway. I set the boot time to 0 seconds, left the skip boot menu option checked and the boot menu still briefly flashes at boot. Is there a way to suppress the boot menu without uninstalling EasyBCD?
 
This indicates a problem with the BCD. You could try "reset bcd" and see if that helps.

Failing that, you can create a backup of your BCD with EasyBCD, delete the entry for now, and when you need it restore the BCD backup.
 
I do see the same problem. Maybe it has to deal with, that I added an entry manually?
I followed the description of adding the Plop Boot manager installation:
( Plop - Boot Manager - Free Boot Manager, builtin usb driver, native usb, boot different operating systems, cdrom, usb, freeware, option rom bios ) with doing bcdedit ... on a Win7 machine. So this entry works, but I couldn't get hide the bootmenu then:
(See content below).

You may ask why I am using another Bootmanager: This is due to the fact it can be hidden and unhidden by pressing a key during startup. So I will normally not notice that there are other OS on disk, only by pressing a key during boot it will display the selection menu. From what I know this is not possible with Win7 Bootloader, right?


C:\Windows\system32>bcdedit /v
