I notice Zorin 12 is no longer listed on that Grub Menu...

boot into Zorin OS.

You may need to reinstall grub.
First, can you boot up Zorin OS, then open terminal and run

sudo update-grub

Then reboot and test. If that does not work, you can try reinstalling grub.

I don't know only one what i know after update Zorin 16 Pro my grub always changing. This grub was 2021/08/20

Do you want see my grub?

Only if you update it first.

If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update

/boot/grub/grub.cfg.

For full documentation of the options in this file, see:

What is the terminal output of lsb_release -a?

No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Zorin OS 16
Release: 20.04
Codename: focal

You just ran the normal updater on Zorin OS 16? Do you also have Zorin OS 12 installed? When was the last time you booted Zorin 12?

I don't used Zorin 12 long time ago. Never on this hard disk. I get this changing grub always when Zorin 16 Pro was updated. With grub I take once modification when I get black screen. Another distribution only using in vmware.neofetch

If it was me, I would reinstall grub.
Your grub file looks normal (including your modifications) and it lists the Zorin Theme for it, too.

Reinstalling GRUB 2 from a Working System

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing

I taken some modification yesterday about some file when cannot install amd drivers from amd webside.

Could have said that in your O.P. :expressionless:

I still recommend reinstalling Grub to see if that resolves the issue- install it from the terminal to ensure you get the Zorin OS package.

GNU nano 4.8 /etc/os-release

Ok. Fixed this problem without any drastic things.
1 Start a PC computer - then you see a boot menu.
2 Click E to edit grub. On top paramet 'ubuntu' I changed on 'zorin'. Then I boot to Zorin button F10 and used a command sudo update-grub.
Everything back on place and after reboot I see again Zorin sign.

I do not see how a Zorin Update could change your grub file to say "Ubuntu."
