'update-grub' and GRUB customiser doesn't work because of error in line 245

Question

An error occurred while using update-grub & grub customiser.

I removed GRUB2 using sudo apt remove grub2 and reinstalled it with sudo apt install grub2 but still the problem persists.

This are the contents of grub.cfg:

I have no problem with dual boot since I have options to boot both Ubuntu and Windows 8. The problem is that I cant change the list order in GRUB via GRUB customiser or use update-grub command due to syntax errors at line 245.
