I'm waiting so many months for a new version of grub that will have this bug fixed. It's strange but I installed linux mint in several computers and only in one I got this problem. I totally reinstalled linux mint in that pc and it happened again. According to the link http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?42134 the bug is found and fixed, so the question now is when the new version is going to be released? Is there anything I could do by my own in order to solve this? Should I compile grub myself or should I wait for the official release?
PS: I tried all the above mentioned solutions and none of them helped!

Title:
  [Grubenv] error: malformed file, press any key to continue

Status in GRand Unified Bootloader:
  Unknown
Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I have just upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04

  Since the upgrade, when I boot up, the process stops and the normal
  grub screen is replaced after a short while by a message saying

  "error: malformed file, press any key to continue"

  Pressing a key allows booting to continue.

  Someone else who experienced this found that the problem went away
  after having re-installed grub.  I tried this but this did not resolve
  the problem for me.

  synaptic reports the grub package as 2.02~beta2-9
