Elpap, as before - you are only booting into the Wubi install of Ubuntu
- that's the one that sits onto top of Windows and depends on Windows
working properly in order to have a chance of working. It's made as a
temporary demo of Ubuntu and is a bit like a house built on shifting
sands. To get the proper install back please follow this guide

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot#Recovering%20GRUB%20after%20reinstalling%20Windows

Then get back into your Wubi version of Ubuntu to copy all the data and stuff from there onto the proper Ubuntu partition and then follow section 4 in this guide
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide

Good luck and regards from
Tom :)
