I installed Ubuntu 14.04 on what used to be Ubuntu 12.04. I am dual booting with Windows 8.1. I haven't been able to access Ubuntu 12.04 since Windows 8.1 did some updates a few weeks back.

GRUB shows up and I can't see Windows 8.1. How can I add Windows 8 using Boot Repair?

I figured out how to install boot-repair in Ubuntu 14.04 by doing this workaround.

Most important thing: How can I add Windows 8.1 to the GRUB menu using Boot Repair?

Make sure Grub2 was installed without problem.

sudo apt-get install grub2-common
sudo update-grub2

This will show up as entries. If the entries are marked with everything currently installed on the boot disk, everything is good and you have no errors. Below is a tool designed to make your grub boot manager look the way you want to and boot the way you want to.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:danielrichter2007/grub-customizer
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install grub-customizer

You can open by searching on dashboard by pressing the super button.

in tab "General Settings"

visibility check "show menu"
