How do I reinstall Windows 10 while keeping my dual boot configuration? I want to do a clean install of Windows 10. I have Ubuntu 16.04. I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10.
Thanks

The problem in this situation is that, if you install Windows 10, it will overwrite the MBR. Windows thinks it's the only OS in the world.
sudo grub-install /dev/sdX
where sdX
is your hard drive. The first hard drive is called sda
, so if you only have one hard drive, replace sdX
with sda
.sudo update-grub
