    Hi guys, I have a problem i'm dealing with for last 48 hours. The GRUB doesn't Windows. I tried dual-boot after giving up on it (I read GRUB doesn't like dual-boot). I reinstall a literally new copy of Windows 10 on separate disk and reinstall a clean copy of Deepin 15.8 on SSD and vualá - it didn't work. I start to think this GRUB 2 hates me
    I checked in grub command-line it seems that grub doesn't even see other disks because when I did 'ls' it showed (hd0) (hd0,gpt1) (hd0,gpt2) which is SSD with Deepin. Could be because I booted the hard disk in UEFI as 1st option? I don't have a GRUB option there only Windows Boot Manager and drives. But when  I did grub-mkdevicemap it says that SSD with Deepin is hd2 and HDD with Windows is hd0. And same when I typed blkid. It showed HDD as sda and SSD as sdc.
    I tried different 40_customs entries. See the file below. And I confirmed that it indeed thinks that SSD is hd0 because when I chose custom entry with root hd0,gpt3 and hd0,gpt4 it said partiotion is not found.

    AGAIN I installed clean Windows 10 on HDD sda and clean Deepin 15.8 on SSD sdc.

    I put it in pastebin, because it's long. It's shows what GRUB 'suppose' to see.

    I tried the following 40_custom it didn't work either so it's not in my 40 custom: https://bbs.deepin.org/post/130491#=1
    Please help. I'm literally dying I felt like last 48 hours I was in pornhub video rated as rape and I was who was raped by GRUB.

    Yes. Os-prober shows nothing. Any ideas?
