Structure of my PC was that: SSD 0.5T (C) Windows 10 only, HDD 1TB (E, F) E part contained wastes of stale Windows 7, and F I used for user files and so on misc.
I installed Ubuntu 22.04 using this recommendations: https://medium.com/linuxforeveryone/how-to-install-ubuntu-20-04-and-dual-boot-alongside-windows-10-323a85271a73. Literally, I shrank the free part of E and used it for partitions.
After that I lost access to my Windows 10. My PC boots automatically from HDD, GRUB see Ubuntu (and Windows 7 that can't boot it, obviously). If i press f12 on boot menu, only this way let me choose SSD as boot source, but as I select it - it loads all the same GRUB. sudo update grub does not help. Boot-Repair gives me this info: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/jJwTxtXxJj/.

Suggested repair: ______________________________________________________________
The default repair of the Boot-Repair utility would reinstall the grub-efi of
sdb6,
using the following options: sda1/boot/efi
Additional repair would be performed: unhide-bootmenu-10s use-standard-efi-file
Blockers in case of suggested repair: __________________________________________
WindowsEFI detected. Please disable BIOS-compatibility/CSM/Legacy mode in your UEFI firmware, and use this software from a live-CD (or live-USB) that is compatible with UEFI booting mode. For example, use a live-USB of Boot-Repair-Disk-64bit (www.sourceforge.net/p/boot-repair-cd), after making sure your BIOS is set up to boot USB in EFI mode.
Final advice in case of suggested repair: ______________________________________
Please do not forget to make your UEFI firmware boot on the Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS entry (sda1/efi/**/grub.efi (** will be updated in the final message) file) !
If your computer reboots directly into Windows, try to change the boot order in your UEFI firmware.
If your UEFI firmware does not allow to change the boot order, change the default boot entry of the Windows bootloader.
For example you can boot into Windows, then type the following command in an admin command prompt:
bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI**\grub.efi (** will be updated in the final message)
The boot of your PC is in BIOS-compatibility/CSM/Legacy mode. You may want to retry after changing it to UEFI mode.
Edited: problem is solved at the moment, many thanks to oldfred and other expirienced users. I tried boot-repair through Ubuntu and throug liveUSB booting - it gives me wrong old Win 7 boot entry. Then I disabled Legacy mode, boot Ubuntu, update GRUB and it finds the required Win 10 boot entry.
