Summary0005100: apt-get won't work
Description

I keep trying

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

And nothing happens, no errors at all. I press enter and absolutely nothing happens.

Before this happened I had a dual boot with Windows 7 and had to reinstall Windows,
Done that and then used a Kali Live USB to fix the boot loader, after boot loader was fixed it starts and runs fine
But no apt-get command works, none of them.

Any ideas what went wrong or what I did wrong ?

Would prefer not to reinstall Kali also.

P.S. to clarify, no errors or problems (shown) just inaction.

Thank you for your interest in Kali but this is not a bug report. It looks like that you need help and guidance to perform some task. We have community support forums on http://forums.kali.org or on IRC with the #kali-linux channel on irc.freenode.net), please post your questions there.

It looks like that you have no mirrors configured in /etc/apt/sources.lists. See https://docs.kali.org/general-use/kali-linux-sources-list-repositories for details on what you should have in that file.
