Not able to detect Windows 10 after failed Ubuntu installation

Few days back I tried installing Ubuntu 18.04 on my Lenovo laptop which already had Windows 10. It didn't showed the option of "Install Ubuntu 18.04 alongside Windows 10", so I created a partition for and home by going to the "Something else" option, After doing this the installation of Ubuntu failed giving the error the grub-efi package failed to installed into /target.



Until then I had Windows 10 working fine, and when I saw the hard disk partition in Windows the partitions I had created for Ubuntu were all empty, so i thought of installing it once again. Now today during installation it showed me the option of "Installing alongside Ubuntu 18.04" although it was not installed, I clicked on "Installing alongside Ubuntu 18.04", thinking I will delete that partition once Ubuntu 18.04 is installed. This time I didn't face any problem and it installed successfully, but on restarting the system it seems that I have got no OS. I get a black screen showing some text with PXE-M0F: Exiting PXE ROM at the bottom.



I tried booting from the USB stick and deleted the Ubuntu partition that was created just now thinking when the system will not find Ubuntu it will boot to Windows 10, but to no avail. Below is the screenshot of my partitions taken from GParted.
