There's your answer. Windows is trying to complete the update, but is
failing. Updates are normally applied before shutdown, and that's where you
are getting stuck. Classic case. Not unusual. That's the issue. So if you
can restore back to the previous state, live with it for a while and try
again.

Ubuntu did not screw up the boot loader.
Windows 7 can live with not being in control, boot loader wise, so grub is
not the issue.
