I can see two scenarios:

  1. You have an NTFS partition that got borked. Linux isn't very good at repairing those so you might have to boot into Windows.
  2. You managed to make your Linux unbootable and need Windows to download a live USB image.

And that's it. Windows is less useful for fixing Linux than vice versa.
