22.04 to 24.04.1 upgrade overwrote my windows partition

I was using Ubuntu 22.04 along with Windows 10 dual boot style. However today I upgraded from 22.04 to 24.04.1 from whatever menu link it provided. 24.04.1 came up well ... however I can no more access Windows. When I power on the system it no more gives me a choice to choose between Windows or Ubuntu... like it used to do.

Any guidance on how to recover from this situation?Thanks in advance.


I tried the above suggested way:

$ sudo update-grub[sudo] password for xxxxxx: Sourcing file `/etc/default/grub'Generating grub configuration file ...Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-6.8.0-41-genericFound initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-6.8.0-41-genericFound linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-6.8.0-40-genericFound initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-6.8.0-40-genericFound memtest86+x64 image: /boot/memtest86+x64.binWarning: os-prober will be executed to detect other bootable partitions.Its output will be used to detect bootable binaries on them and create new boot entries.Found Windows 10 on /dev/sda1Adding boot menu entry for UEFI Firmware Settings ...done

However after reboot it directly boots ubuntu ... without giving me the choice of os s. I rebooted twice as one of the suggestions expressed.

Please see if there is anything that I might have missed/overlooked.

Thanks to all of you for your time.
