I currently have a Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04 dual boot on my PC. This issue happened because i have installed windows after Ubuntu.
I have tried to boot from a live-USB and reinstalling Grub using the terminal following this link http://howtoubuntu.org/how-to-repair-restore-reinstall-grub-2-with-a-ubuntu-live-cd
Also using the grub repair tool but with no success!
And now I am stuck in this grub2 command line screen:
Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists possible device or file completions.

I got this output after running lsblk; sudo parted -l

From your Question and comments the resolution will be the following:
Boot to the live disk and run these steps. the /dev/sdXY
is replaced for the specifics of the information you have provided.
The c6 in step 1 and the a in step 4 are variables. The c6
should be replaced with the partition of your Ubuntu install. The a
should be replaced with the default boot that you have set in your bios.
The prefix :$
and :#
are the command prompts you see on the terminal.
1:$ sudo mount /dev/sdc6 /mnt
2:$ for i in /sys /proc /run /dev; do sudo mount --bind "$i" "/mnt/$i"; done
3:$ sudo chroot /mnt
4:# grub-install /dev/sda
5:# update-grub
6:# exit
7:$ for i in /sys /proc /run /dev; do sudo umount "/mnt/$i"; done
8:$ exit
Reboot.
Ensure that you have UEFI
enabled in your BIOS if is a later model computer with that feature.
