Hold on a second, You installed Windows 10 On Ubuntu as In? 1. Didn’t you Clean install windows 10? 2. If not then did your machine have dual Boot option, I mean it can run 2 OS’es? 3. If yes, then you must See the option to Run windows or Ubuntu at Boot-up, if there is no option then Probably you did what I have mentioned in number 1. Kindly clarify. because when you’re looking for help you better Explain what have you done and what you’re looking for. Proceed

**Ubuntu** (Linux) is an operating system - **Windows** is another operating system
 they both **do** the **same** type of work on your **computer** , so you **can**'t really **run** both a once. However, it’s possible to set-up your **computer** to **run** “dual-boot”. 
 At boot-time, you **can** choose between **running Ubuntu** or **Windows**. Go to the Bios and see under Boot option if your system have Dual boot option in it. Enable and try again. If the option not there, then I cannot run Ubuntu and windows 10 separately. And If you want to run Ubuntu on windows 10 then Try Virtualbox, or VMPlayer to do the deed. ---

Thanks @G_SHOCK @mohammed98 don’t get confused, this command will set the dual boot (if available) Here’s the Proper command to revert it back if the set command not works: ```auto bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\ubuntu\grubx64.efi ``` You don’t need to enter a password or anything like that. The command should run just fine given that your account has admin rights. Restart and you’ll be welcomed by the familiar Grub screen. I hope this quick tutorial helped you to fix the Grub issue. ### It did not work? If the above entry didn’t change anything, you can reverse it using the command below: ```auto bcdedit /deletevalue {bootmgr} path \EFI\ubuntu\grubx64.efi ``` Even if the above command didn’t work, try the command below to set the boot back to Windows. ```auto bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi ``` If you are not able to boot into Windows installation, plug in the Windows installation disk and there you’ll have access to the command prompt. Good luck! ---

> [@mohammed98](#): > > but win 10 don’t open so i come back and active c : partition from ubuntu os , i will plug the debian os ?? If windows is not showing in the GRUB you can try following in terminal: `sudo os-prober` If windows entry is shown in output run following: `sudo update-grub` This should add windows to grub list ---
