How to fix the system after installing lincus mint?

First I installed the linkus mint (sinamon). After the reboot, Windows loaded without the ability to select an OS.
I walked around the open spaces and came across boot repair. After choosing the recommended fix and going through all the steps, grub 2 was installed but with an error (error text https://pastebin.com/5bykdJ9h)
Now I have a situation where I can’t run either Windows or a freshly installed Linux.
About the system: made during installation 3 partitions - swap partition, / and / home
3 hard drives, 1 - ssd with Windows (which now even the Linux installer does not see)
2- hdd for 1tb with Linux
3- one more hdd for 500GB
Knowledge of Linux -as you can see 0, please advise simpler

I too faced the problem of installing Linux and Windows on the same PC. Linux could not install the bootloader in any way, and windows simply does not see partitions if there are several HDDs in the system. It has something to do with the boot and uefi directories, which are set to "something important to boot" and are write-protected.
The decision arose as always by itself. You physically disconnect for a while, HDD installations with a competitive OS, and after installing Linux, reconfigure the bootloader.

Just after installing the mint, select it as a priority, i.e. 1 boot device disk with Linux and there will be both Windows and mint in the boot menu. And you have a disk with Windows first in the list of boot disks.

Weird. Never had such a problem. I usually install Windu first, then Mint. The boot menu is created by Mint without dancing with a tambourine.
Essno and Windu, and Mint I put on separate log.disks. Working files on a separate.
If anything, I rewrite the system ones and repeat the installation.
Log in from LifeDisk or LifeFlash, delete iWindows and Mint and repeat the installation: First Windows, then Mint.
