I going out of my mind....

I cannot boot in normal way on my Kubuntu 16.10. I've got installed it on my /dev/sda3 as below. I started to have some issues with my installation (after installing EXT2FS on my Win 10) and decided to install Kubuntu once again.

Normal procedure. Format /dev/sda3 on EXT4, make SWAP, install boot on /dev/sda and so on.

All is good.

Kubuntu is starting normal.

Till I will go into Windows 10. When it will boot up, it is making some changes, and therefore when I want to boot it, this happens :

BusyBox v1.21.1 (Ubuntu 1:1.21.0-1ubuntu1) built-in shell (ash)
enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

(initramfs)

One time solution - go info LiveCD, use BOOT-REPAIR and it will work. Till I will start Windows 10 once again.

I've got this situation on /dev/sda

LOG from BOOT-REPAIR :

http://pastebin.com/Tbq0W6Td

Secure Boot is off, and I am using Legacy Boot. Installation has been made also in Legacy Mode.

Any clue ?

Edit[ 1]: I've changed topic to be more precisely.

Edit[2]: Fast startup option is DISABLED

Windows-Power Options

I would like to add, that on first installation of Kubuntu (ealier) everything was ok. It was also 16.10 version like now.

Edit[3]: Like oldfred suggested I've tied to exit from BusyBox, which gave me this error :

A TPM error (7) occurred attempting to read a pcr value

BusyBox v1.21.1 (Ubuntu 1:1.21.0-1ubuntu1) built-in shell (ash)

[54.699241] ---[ end KErnel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x00000200

Edit [4] : Ok, according to this answer (sorry, I cannot use more than 2 links) : askubuntu.com/questions/25695/initramfs-error-during-boot

I've repaired my ubuntu partition and Kubuntu boot without problem !!

Here is summary of fsck pastebin.com/fHKTdUt7

But when I will try to boot Win once again, I think everything will get back to problem.

Edit[5]: Yes, booting into Windows made the same issue once again. Someone, please, help.

Ok, I've managed to resolve my problem.

From what I've understood - main problem has happened after installing EXT2FSD v0.69 on Windows 10.

First thing I've been done was uninstalling it before any further work. But yesterday - I've found that even after uninstalling, service of EXT2FSD was installed and working on my system.

I've deleted it by

sc delete ext2fsd 

then fixed ext4 filesystem by fsck and all problems gone....

    Microsoft agrees with you: Microsoft says don't do it: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/commandline/2016/11/17/do-not-change-linux-files-using-windows-apps-and-tools/ – K7AAY Jul 11 '18 at 17:41
