Hey everyone.
I have dual boot of Windows 10 and ubuntu 16.04.
I don't know why but I accidentatly deleted some partitions related to bootload and to linux.
Now While booting, I don't get the grub graaphical interface, I'm direct to grub command lign grub> ,
When trying "shift", I was able to access to windows, but with ubuntu I'm always redirected to grub prompt.
I have tried with boot repair, but nothing happened, and I get "no bootloader is installed in the mbr of /dev/sda" in the boot info file,
I am confused, how can I resolve the problem without having to reinstall ubuntu again,
thank you,

See Boot-Repair in my signature below and follow the instructions there to run the Boot-Info-Script again showing us all the info.

Do not run the default repair just yet but simply copy back here the pastebin link you get which will show us a lot more about your system than you have told us so far.

You say

but we need more than that to assist, but it seems likely from that comment that there is a BIOS/UEFI problem which may be easy to solve once we know what's wrong.
