    Windows 10/ Ubuntu 16.04 dual boot unavailable


    I just re-installed Windows 10 while I had Ubuntu and now I cant access Ubuntu anymore. Someone suggested Easy BCD but my Ubuntu partition is of the ext4 file system and hence is inaccessible to my Windows. The only method I know is to reinstall Ubuntu but I really don't want to do that. Is there any way I can solve this? It seems Windows doesn't recognize the Ubuntu partition at all. Does Windows boot manager exist in Win 10? If so, how do I activate it?
