I have a dual-boot scheme ubuntu 18.04 lts and w10 idk 2017 update or at least I used to have it
So, I'm gonna start saying that I live in Venezuela, just to contextualize my sorrow (lol), and power outages are very common and during one of them my laptop was booting up so w10 died and since I don't have proper internet I couldn't fix it right away, and yada yada yada trying to fix it I got frustrated and quit on w10 and kept ubuntu and updated it to the latest version available 21.04 or 20.10 i don't remember
a couple of months later I needed w10 and after backing up all my data and booting up a flash drive when i went to try to boot it I unintentionally eliminated the boot of Ubuntu, leaving me w/any working OS and lost part of the data I had backed up
miraculously, my brother had ubuntu 20.04 so I got back on the horse and try to install w10 booting the flash drive again but this time I did it correctly, but when I finally made to the installation process I find out that my disk scheme was MBR and I needed GPT to install it using UEFI, so I used gdisk but I just changed the partitions from MBR to GPT and exit it, but when I did it I lost the boot of ubuntu again, but I was able to finally install w10, so I burned yet again the same flash drive w ubuntu 18.04 and run the boot repair tool just to confirm that i didn't have recommended repair option available and under the advance settings there is the repair file system option but I'm afraid that might damage my w10 installation and I don't want that so I'm following the advice the tool gave me and doing this thread just to drain a little bit my frustration
I might just need to install ubuntu from scratch all over again and get over with it, but idk this is some sort of last shot to recover whatever is left of my ubuntu install
thank you for reading this, for your time and your help
and sorry for my English I'm just tired
Hope you have a good day.
