          I'm kind of kicking myself. The exact same day I installed Ubuntu 18.04, my hard drive power cable got internally loose (the SATA cable was fine)



          I found this out by booting into Ubuntu, opening Nautilus, going to "Other Locations" and noticing the Windows hard drive was not showing up. So then I got curious, because I KNEW it SHOULD show up.



          So I cracked open the computer with a headlamp and noticed the cabling to the hard drive seemed wrong. I plugged it back in WHILE Nautilus was running and it just "popped up"!



          Then I just rebooted and grub launched windows just fine. Crazy coincidence
