couldnot launch on my win8

I have the exact same problem. I've recently been trying to dual boot windows 8 and ubuntu. I remember in the beginning easybcd did work, but after installing and then figuring out to uninstall the wubi version of ubuntu (I'm not exactly sure what I did), now easybcd doesn't load at all when I click on it. I've tried running bootrec /fixboot and bootrec /fixmbr from the windows installation disk, but to no avail. Can somebody help me on this please? Thanks.
 
No, I don't see either of those programs. I've pasted my bcdedit information below.

I've also tried running easybcd with admin privileges and that doesn't work either. Thank you for your help!

Addendum

I did some more research, and I found a similar post where you had to install the beta version of easybcd 2.2 build 180. I did that and it worked, but after a restart it stopped working again. Now both version do not work. How odd!

or just start typing "Event..." in the search box if you're using a decent OS like Vista/7
