I have attempted using bootrepair from a Ubuntu usb, and lilo neither of which are working. OSrepair states that I have no os on the hard drive yet I know for a fact windows is still on it because when I deleted the Ubuntu partion I did so on my windows os. Now I cant get out of grub rescue and nothing is fixing my bootloader to point to windows and I have zero idea of what to do now.

EDIT: using supergrub2 I was able to boot windows, this is the only way ive been able to do so currently. now I just need to fix my bootloader to point to windows but I'm honestly lost on how to do this

Another edit, since someone tagged this as a dupe, I have already checked any previous posts about this topic for the answer and every thing I have tried hasn't worked. almost as if you who tagged this as a dupe didn't read the first part which said neither boot repair or lilo fixed it. So the other answers will not work.

Go into BIOS and move the windows boot manager to the top using F6 and F7 keys. Save and exit Then you will be able to normally boot into Windows OS

Not exactly sure what I did, but after several attempts at different softwares and, all of them not working. Grub somehow disappeared. I believe It had something to do with rescatux as I went through and selected almost everything I could to see if I could get this os functional without a usb. then after that, I lost grub recovery and instead, gained a windows error screen stating I needed to repair my os. finally it worked when I inserted a windows recovery iso, but some of my files are corrupted for whatever reason.
