If you want Windows entries not appears in GRUB menu, you can disable the detection of other operating systems: chmod a-x /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober
Than you can run update-grub with Windows HDD plugged, and menu will not include MS/Windows boot. Usually, when GRUB has no different OS to show in the menu, it's configured hidden to boot faster. If you want to discover the menu, you must hold [Shift] key at boot manager stage.
