Ran install from ISO to disk(Trial)Ubuntu 14.04, the disk installed beside windows10 but now have 2 screens to load...

Question

Turn on power, screen asks which to load(From windows) So, I select windows, and poof, good ! Then if I choose Ubuntu, a screen says stuff, and ESCape is my option. Then I choose to boot (f9) Ubuntu, and another Ubuntu screen appears.

I got a pastebin, http://paste.ubuntu.com/14673246/

I'm worried wubi will destroy the computer... and, I would like to just click on ONE or the other to load whichever OS I need to use...instead of having the two loaders... as I do now. Whatever did this was from the live-install icon for 14.04, thanks.

Reading, but i am afraid to .. mess with this. A broken Wubi has been detected. Please fix it this way: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#Cannot_boot_into_Ubuntu — WLC, Feb 13 '16 at 12:26
It looks like you have an EFI install of Windows. You can't use wubi with EFI to my knowledge. — Daniel, Feb 13 '16 at 18:16
Uninstalled Wubi / Ubuntu. Re-installed via liveCD option says "Install Ubuntu" (Not try it.) Ubuntu is definitely working from the firmware... But, Windows boot mgr has no entry to load it, so I have to exit windows via troubleshooting/firmware advanced settings, or hold shift/on restart to load Ubuntu. — WLC, Mar 11 '16 at 15:12
Read "http://askubuntu.com/questions/264344/fixing-grub-menu-after-migrating-wubi-to-partition?lq=1" and Got very interested ! Still not sure what to do about getting Ubuntu into that boot file. — WLC, Mar 11 '16 at 15:40

OK, so now your problem seems to be that there is no boot menu entry.

Use EasyBCD to set this up. This answer has a more detailed description.

This will let you select wether to boot into Windows or Ubuntu from the windows boot menu.

If you don't like booting to GRUB after you select Ubuntu, you can configure GRUB to have a 0 second delay, so that you don't see it. It will remain hidden.

And I have confirmed myself that this DOES work in Windows 10 (at least it does in the Enterprise version). – Daniel Mar 11 '16 at 15:46
Have Home version. HP i5 4core. I also read this... "" Alternatively you can use "Dual-boot Repair Tool" which has a graphical interface to bcdboot.exe, bootsect.exe and other useful functions like boot sector view and one click dual-boot repair function for Windows 10/8/7/Vista (also can fix Windows XP boot files). – WLC Mar 11 '16 at 15:52
EasyBCD will do that for you, and it's very simple and easy to do. I strongly suspect that this will work with Home, since they use the exact same bootloader. – Daniel Mar 11 '16 at 15:53
