After being unplugged for a few days my computer no longer wants to show a dual boot menu (with systems windows 11 and ubuntu) and I'm unsure why. It currently boots directly into ubuntu.
I've tried holding shift and also holding the down arrow. This causes the computer to never boot.
I've also tried using boot-repair. The output logs can be found below. Any help on what is occurring would be greatly appreciated.

Adding boot menu entry for UEFI Firmware Settings ...
Unhide GRUB boot menu in sdb4/boot/grub/grub.cfg
Boot successfully repaired.
You can now reboot your computer.
Please do not forget to make your UEFI firmware boot on the Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS entry (sdb3/efi/ubuntu/grubx64.efi file) !
If your computer reboots directly into Windows, try to change the boot order in your UEFI firmware.
If your UEFI firmware does not allow to change the boot order, change the default boot entry of the Windows bootloader.
For example you can boot into Windows, then type the following command in an admin command prompt:
bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\ubuntu\grubx64.efi
