Windows missing from the GRUB menu depends of many variables: - Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8? - UEFI vs BIOS - Wubi (this apparently also affects) - Status of the partition - etc. A single question cannot ever be canonical for all those possibles variants of the same problem, instead focus **in doing several questions that are clear enough** with all the necessary information to diagnostic the problem and give the proper solution and the sensible solution.
