When I run os-prober from command line on this computer, I have this:
# os-prober
#

Even linux does not appear there. I already tried this thing :) ( but 
still a good idea from you to check )

I have no mention of GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER in /etc/default/grub, and 
the only place where such text appear in my whole /etc is in 
/etc/grub.d/30_os-prober line 43:

 43 if [ "x${GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER}" = "xtrue" ]; then
 44   exit 0
