I had a dual boot set up with Windows/Ubuntu, but the Windows boot manager never opened up Ubuntu. I always had to go into the UEFI startup menu to go into Ubuntu, so I tried setting it to load that on startup through Grub Customizer. But, instead, it continues to load the Windows boot manager.
Now, when starting my computer, I press F9 and it goes into the boot manager, select Ubuntu to start that up, but it loops back around to the UEFI startup menu.
I have no idea what to try nor do I want to try anything else in fear of doing something worse. I wish I could reset the Grub Customizer settings, but, without being able to load Ubuntu, I do not know how I could do that.
Is there any way to boot up into Ubuntu again instead of the UEFI startup menu or did I completely mess it up permanently?
Update: ran a report using "boot-repair" on a usb loaded copy of ubuntu. here os the link to the report Https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/dz8HJC82Nr/
Also, if i installed a permanent copy of ubuntu on a third partition, would i be able to download grub customizer again and change the settings that way back to booting normally? I tried downloading it on the usb copy of ubuntu but since its not an authorized user it wouldnt download nor would i be able to make changes to the computer settings
Any help is appreciated.
