Dual boot with mintMint and windowsWindows doesn't work: only linuxLinux boot

Well I'll sum up whatWhat I did so far:

I had ubuntuUbuntu + windowsWindows 10, was working fine but ubuntuUbuntu was taking too much space on my drive.

Deleted ubuntuUbuntu partitions, gave the space back to windows, boot into the windows usbWindows USB drive to perform the bootrec /fixmbrbootrec /fixmbr,fixbootfixboot commands Although bootrec /scanosbootrec /scanos didn't detect any windowsWindows installation...I think that's why it doesn't work now. Did the rebuiuldbcdrebuiuldbcd, didn't do anything either.

Anyway at this point I rebooted and it worked like a charm, my windowsWindows was loading properly everytimeevery time.

Now I installed mintMint after having an issue with "grub-efi-amd64 package failed to install to /target/" In order to solve this I had to do something quite ballsy to me at least

I have an SSD 256GB256 GB with windowsWindows on it and a HD 2TB2 TB on which I wanted to install linux forLinux. For some very strange reason the boot partition was apparently on the HD, which is weird I would assume it'sit would be on the SSD . Anyway I deleted the NTFS boot partition and created a 500MB500 MB FAT32 boot + esp partition instead . After setting this to be the boot partition it worked, the installation finished successfully.

Then reboot, at first I had no grub menu and it was booting directly to mintMint, searching the web I ended up modifying the etc/default/grub/etc/default/grub file and perform a grub-update.

worked,Worked; I now have the grub menu but no windowsWindows is listed.

I tried to run the repair-boot application, it worked, reinstalled everything, but still no windowsWindows.

os-prober doesn't return anything Only linuxLinux is listed when performing the grub-update command

fdisk -l command

Sorry I tried to use the code feature from stackexange but didn't work

I've looked on the internetInternet but I have to say that I'm stuck, it may have something to do with the windowsWindows side of thing, but still, the issue is in grub so I'm unsure.

I'll highly appreciate any assistance.
