    Before you mess with commands I suggest you to do what I mentioned before. The picture you sent has the grub bootloader and assuming windows didn’t nuke it, when you choose your Linux drive to boot first it should come back.

    Also changing the boot order will not break your pc

      Thanks. It was actually F12, I managed to catch it for the split second it showed; for some reason it doesn’t always show the commands when I switch it on.

      This is what I got.

      I selected Ubuntu and I got my choice back again. I hope i don’t have to do this every time I boot though.

      Thank you for being so patient with me.

        You entered the boot selection, which is used for quickly booting into a different drive but it doesn’t change which drive the PC boots into by default. To change that you’ll need to enter the bios proper and you do that by spamming f2 or delete key just like you did with the f12 key.
