I was new in Ubuntu OS and I was just trying to use wubi windows installer to get a Ubuntu first for hands-on.
I followed exactly the same as the instructions and after reboot win7, there is no Ubuntu selection in windows boot manager, with only Windows 7 showing there evilly -.-
What I've found out was that the grub folder inside Ubuntu folder ( in my C: drive) was empty, either inside the ubuntudisksgrub or ubuntuinstallgrub. I thought this might be the reason why I could not load ubuntu during startup.
Cause I've also looked into the EasyBCD settings, and ubuntu entry with Bootloader Path: ubuntuwinbootwubildr.mbr was lying there peacefully, looking perfectly fine. However it was not in boot loader actually.
Is there a way to restore the grub folder with grub2, or is there any way to fix this problem so that I can find the "Ubuntu" selection at windows startup?
Very appreciate your help :)

Grab a copy of wubildr (extract from wubi installer with 7zip) and copy to root (C:), together with your wubildr.mbr
You can add an entry with EasyBCD or, if you have grub, you can boot from the grub prompt by entering:
search --set=diskroot -f -n /ubuntu/disks/root.disk
probe --set=diskuuid -u $diskroot
linux /vmlinuz root=UUID=$diskuuid loop=/ubuntu/disks/root.disk ro quiet splash
initrd /initrd.img
boot
Then run (once booted):
sudo update-grub
