Only closed and opened again the boot-repair, choose different repair options on advanced, followed the steps and Vualá!

Done. Now i can dual boot.

    I'm trying to make a dual boot with Windows/Ubuntu, but after I installed Ubuntu I can't boot from USB anymore!

    I'm trying to use Boot-Repair, but the problem is it asks me to run a command that refers to a package with no installation candidate!

    Here is the command with the error:

    sudo apt-get install -y --force-yes grub-pc linux-generic
    Package 'grub-pc' has no installation candidate

      Is Internet working, Boot-Repair is running a command to download new packages from Repository, so it can reinstall it. Also are you booting in UEFI or BIOS boot mode. If UEFI you should be using grub-efi-amd64.
