I had the following:
Sda Not EFI - Grub2.04 - Win 10 - Ubuntu 20.04 - Swap
Then I installed mint cinnamon on sdc, which was formatted at install.
Sdc is now EFI and can boot cinnamon if I boot to sdc efi. But if I boot sda I have windows and ubuntu only (no mint)on sda.
So I went further and did some damage.
Destroyed ubuntu and swap from sda (it was dumb I know now)
Installed ubuntu alongside mint on sdc.
Now from sda grub cannot work (logic as I have deleted ubuntu parition). I would like at least to be able to boot windows from sda (imagine sdc failure), but evrything from sda would be great.
From sdc I boot to linux mint boot which looks different than bare grub. I can access either mint or ubuntu but not windows.
I tried boot-repair through mint ubuntu, installed and live. I have also tried boot-repair iso and supergrub2 iso. It either fail because of conflict with gpt or it pass but I have no difference at startup.

I can format sdc or unplug if necessary. I can do any iso on usb. I wish to maintain my windows partition and be able to boot it. My usb stick always appear as EFI in bios, I don't know if it is part of my problem. I have a2gb and a 16gb stick on hand.
But I don't know how to tackle my issues and in what sequence.
Any advice?
