I have a Macbook pro running both Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04. When I initially installed Ubuntu, I received an internal error which didn't cause the desktop to load, so I reinstalled it. At the time, I didn't like grub, so I decided to convert the partition into empty space. After installing Ubuntu and rEFInd, when I tried to switch over to Windows, I was brought to the grub rescue terminal where it said that boot/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod was not found. I already ran boot repair, the log for it is right here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/17234595/, but it still didn't fix the problem nor did running sudo update-grub. Is there any solution to this problem? Thanks.

You may have uninstalled the windows boot loader when you converted the grub partition to blank space. You may have to reinstall windows.

Solved the problem. I created a bootable USB drive with the Windows 10 ISO using UNetbootin. I booted into the Windows 10 installation screen and clicked repair your computer. After that, I clicked Advanced options then command prompt. In command prompt, I typed in the following commands:
bootrec.exe /FixMBR
DISKPART
SELECT DISK 0
SELECT PARTITION 4
ACTIVE
The disk and partition numbers may be different depending on what disk and partition windows is installed on. To see the disks and partitions on the computer, enter LIST DISK OR LIST PARTITION.
