Hi,
The C:\ in your photo is NTFS... That can not be the Windows Boot Partition...
It is normally listed as "EFI" and is FAT32... My guess is that your Grub Boot Loader reformatted it..
E:\ would be the actual Windows OS Partition...
One thing you might try is unhooking your USB Hub that is listing the four removable media volumes..
What type of media (Build #) are you using to get to the Command Prompt ?
Build 16299.15 (1709) seems to have issues with Boot Repair functions...
You might try Build 15063 (1703) to create bootable flash...
One other thing... To have a EFI Partition your machine must be running in UEFI Bios..
Try booting from your USB-ESD by selecting it in Boot Options where you should see an option for "UEFI USB" as opposed to just "USB", or whatever your machine calls the USB drive..
Build 16299.15 (1709) seems to have issues with Boot Repair functions...

I can also confirm that X:\Sources>BOOTREC /FixBoot gives "The operation completed successfully" when using Build 15063 (1703), i.e. Anniversary Update. With the Fall Creators Update (1709), I never found a way to avoid the following:
X:\Sources>bootrec /fixboot
Access is denied.
BTW
With Windows 10, the DISKPART Volume 1 on an MBR format disk is normally a 100 MB System Reserved partition, that should be the active boot partition. The label "Zastrezone" seems to indicate that it has been overwritten by the Grub loader.
Sorry about the long delay, macecor. I would like to check if you're able to fix the issue already. Would you be able to share your fix to the community? I you haven't got the right solutions yet, please try this Bootrec sequence:
bootrec /scanos
bootrec /fixMBR
bootrec /fixBoot
bootrec /rebuildBCD
bootrec /fixBoot
The solution that was posted by Darko65 should already be the solution on this. If that did take no effect, please consider to format your partitions by following what BillyBigun mentioned in this link that you've provided above: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-update/windows-10-bootrec-fixboot-access-is-denied/747c4180-7ff3-4bc2-b6cc-81e572d546df
After the successful format, please consider reinstalling Windows.
Hello,
I tried what Darko65 has written but it doesn't work i still see grub rescue screen. Maybe i tried wrong partitions but i thought they were right, as on my photo are C: system partition and E: windows partition according to Darko65 way?
