Boot Manager is a computer program that is used to manage the boot sequence of a computer system. It is responsible for loading the operating system kernel and initiating the boot process. The Boot Manager can be found in the BIOS of a computer system, and can be used to choose the operating system or boot device to load. It can also be used to configure boot order, change boot settings, and troubleshoot boot problems. Additionally, some Boot Managers include features such as password protection, system information, and diagnostic tools.
