I tried installing windows 10 after Ubuntu 18.04 using this post, After entering the live CD, and running

sudo fdisk -l

As this follow-up post - indicated This was the output

Which seems way too much partitions, but I know that the Ubuntu is in the 1 TB disk, and the windows is in the 140GB disk
So I did

sudo mount /dev/nvme0n1p3 /mnt
ls /mnt

And indeed saw my Ubuntu files But after running

for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done
sudo chroot /mnt #change the root
sudo update-grub # now update grub

I have this output

root@ubuntu:/# sudo update-grub # now update grub

Adding boot menu entry for EFI firmware configuration
done

And I can't boot to Ubuntu nor windows

Edit:
Other posted solutions have not worked, as I think something is corrupted, It feels like there are too many disks as I only used 2 disks, and the 2TB is completely new and haven't been touched. becase I may chose a wrong disk partition to boot from? I'm attaching all the different disks from GParted: enter image description here enter image description here enter image description here enter image description here

here is the Boot-info http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/fvN4Fcx37m/
