So recently i was resizing partitions and i apparently messed up the boot files for my windows 10 installation. Before that i had a tri-boot setup between windows 7, windows 10 and Ubuntu 14.04. Windows 7 is installed on a seperate 250 gb hard drive and dissappeared from the Grub bootloader menu a few weeks ago and i just ignored it as i no longer use it anymore, just the disk. so a couple days ago i was shrinking my Linux partition and expanding my Windows 10 partition and apparently messed up the boot files and i get the error 0xc000025 whenever i try to boot windows 10. So from Ubuntu i made a windows 10 install usb and booted from it and attempted to run startup repair and it just glitched out and restarted my computer. So then i went into the command prompt and tried every different combination of bootrec and bcd commands and only managed to run bootrec /fixmbr successfully. All the other commands returned the error element not found. So then i tried selecting every different partition and volume in diskpart and even tried assigning different letters to them the second time around and marking them as active and i still get the element not found error. So then i waited 7 hours and freed up 20 gb of space from another partition and attempted to install windows 10 alongside the other installation hoping that it would make a new system reserved partition/boot section and then delete it afterward but i am unable to do that because i already have Ubuntu and my other Win 10 installation on the same disk and i already have 3 partitions and 2 or 3 more system ones that i didnt create. Im completely stumped and i refuse to format and or reinstall windows 10 over the old and lose my program files, drivers, classic shell settings and other data. Any help would be greatly appreciated and i may have left something out because this is the second time ive had to type this but i believe i covered it all. Thanks in advance.
