I explained that it won't work the way he tries to make it work. The answer may not be the answer he want but I simply can't change it. And judging from "I am going to try using the boot-repair-disk, it appears you can install Ubuntu in Legacy or EUFI mode" I guess that he actually does NOT know that it won't work. As far as I understand he just thought he misconfigured. While this still being possible, even with correct config this won't run.

I did understand you. The problem is I cannot give him a reply HOW to solve the problem as THERE IS NO solution except what I stated: "Either reinstall Ubuntu or Windows". There is an EFI partition, yes, that's all good - but you can create as many EFI partitions as you want - it simply won't help as it won't be able to boot from MBR or EFI

I will delete my comments then. I have provided feedback. If you address my concerns then I can reverse my vote.

Eeeh, AGAIN: How should I address the issue of it beingimpossible? That's not possible.

If the problem is he installed Ubuntu without updating the EFI partition, you can explain, how he acomplishes that. I would also agree thats the problem.
