I ran out of space for my Ubuntu OS and decided to extend it by unallocating space from Windows OS partition and assigning it to Ubuntu. Ubuntu worked right afterwards but Windows won't boot up. Windows ran its own file check and "fixed" files, and booted up but now Ubuntu is not booting up. Now, when I want to boot Ubuntu, it's not GNU/Linux and just black screen.
I used a live USB Stick with Boot-Repair to fix things and it suggested to purge GRUB and reinstall it. I had issues with that and did everything I could. For example, I had problems with packages and I just manually was "fixing" them (?). But now, it just says grub-efi purge is cancelled. I think I really broken things. I did my own research, and the solutions are very closely connected with EFI partitions and changing things there and I'm kind of scared to do that right now.

Suggested repair: ______________________________________________________________
The default repair of the Boot-Repair utility will purge (in order to unsign) and reinstall the grub-efi of
nvme0n1p5,
using the following options: nvme0n1p1/boot/efi
Additional repair will be performed: unhide-bootmenu-10s use-standard-efi-file restore-efi-backups
Final advice in case of suggested repair: ______________________________________
Please do not forget to make your UEFI firmware boot on the Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS entry (nvme0n1p1/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)
