I do not know about Ubuntu but on RedHat systems if you load the ntfs modules
and then re-run the grub config thing, it will detect the win 10 OS without
any modifications to the GRUB2 config. I cannot remember if I had to reboot
and then re-run the GRUB2 config or if installing the packages was sufficient.

Might be worth a shot. :-)
