Since I must uninstall Ubuntu from the PC (with UEFI) I'm writing from, how can I revert
what said here by @maddin25, in particular the command Bcdedit /set bootmgr path EFIubuntugrubx64.efi?
I need it because I want the original boot, not the GRUB.
Do I really need EasyBcd? I found this question / answer, but it's obsolete, now there is Windows 10.
Is there a command line that I can enter in the prompt (like the previous one) to revert the situation? (I would prefer this)
boot dual-boot grub2 uefi windows-10

@oldfred It's UEFI, and it came with Win 8.1

@Panther, which is the best way? doing it from Windows as you said (and as what I'm running now) or reboot into Ubuntu and following the answer given by oldfred?

In case you didn't know, this PC is the same HP pavilion I mentioned in the first link, I upgraded it to Windows 10 when it was free of charge; I did it since it can afford this and gained also in performance ;)
