@RuiFRibeiro doing that and then switching back to EFI let me access my Windows10 OS but not the Fedora OS (no giving me the option to select). It automatically going to Windows10

@RuiFRibeiro That's not good advice. He would have to reinstall both Windows and Linux; not a pleasant day's work!

If your system is now booting directly into Windows rather than GRUB, you can go into your BIOS setup and choose a different boot option, i.e. "UEFI: Fedora"

It looks like someone or something removed a whole lot of important stuff from your grub configuration defaults in /etc/default/grub
. Particularly this line:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau rhgb quiet"
This line originally contained a lot more information, to help grub locate and boot your Linux installation.
The actual grub configuration is built in part from this configuration file.
You should try editing the kernel command line at the grub menu by pressing e while the menu is on display. Then afer rhgb quiet
add in root=/dev/sda5 rd.auto
to the end. Then press F10 to boot. That should get you in.
After determining that this works and boots your system, to fix the problem permanently, add the same to the line indicated in /etc/default/grub
and run grub2-mkconfig -o /etc/grub2-efi.cfg
to fix the persistent grub configuration file. (It may happen that you need slightly different options to get the system to boot. In that case, use those options instead.)
