Hello dear experts. I hope you can help me ;)
In the past, I was able to set up my HP laptop to boot either Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS or Windows 8.1 or, later, Windows 10. Yesterday, I performed a fresh installation of 64-bit Windows 10 Home from the DVD source, which during the phase of installing updates, installed the build 10586 ("November Update" or "Version 1511" or "Threshold 2" (TH2)).
As previously, in order for dual-boot I turned off fast setup and ran "bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\ubuntu\shimx64.efi" in Windows 10, but I failed this time.
In the past, I received the following text after running boot-repair:
Boot successfully repaired.
Please write on a paper the following URL:
http://paste.ubuntu.com/9403740/
In case you still experience boot problem, indicate this URL to:
boot.repair@gmail.com or to your favorite support forum.
You can now reboot your computer.
Please do not forget to make your BIOS boot on sda2/EFI/ubuntu/shimx64.efi file!
If your computer boots directly into Windows, try to change the boot order in
your BIOS.
If your BIOS does not allow to change the boot order, change the default boot
entry of the Windows boot loader.
For example you can boot into Windows, then type the following command in an
admin command prompt:
bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\ubuntu\shimx64.efi
This time, I got the following message:
Boot successfully repaired.
Please write on a paper the following URL:

In case you still experience boot problem, indicate this URL to:
boot.repair@gmail.com or to your favorite support forum.
You can now reboot your computer.
Please do not forget to make your BIOS boot on sda (1000GB) disk!
The boot files of [The OS now in use - Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS] are far from the start of the disk. Your BIOS may not detect them. You may want to retry after creating a /boot partition (EXT4, >200MB, start of the disk). This can be performed via tools such as gParted. Then select this partition via the [Separate /boot partition:] option of [Boot Repair]. (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootPartition)
If your computer reboots directly into Windows, try to change the boot order in your BIOS.
If your BIOS does not allow to change the boot order, change the default boot entry of the Windows bootloader.
For example you can boot into Windows, then type the following command in an admin command prompt:
bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\ubuntu\shimx64.efi
As you can see the messages are different and I don't really understand what the new one indicates. As a result, no GRUB gets executed when turning the computer on or restarting it, and the boot goes straight to Windows 10. My Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS remains intact and I'm able to boot into it by shift-restarting from Windows 10.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you very much. Kindest regards.
