    Removed Ubuntu

    Have you ever tried removing Ubuntu from boot list with msconfig? Which is much easier that way.

    > In the Cortana search bar, type MSCONFIG and press Enter.

    > On the System Configuration box, go to the Boot tab.

    > From the list of available operating systems, click to select the one that you want to remove.

    > Click the Delete button present below the listbox.

    > Confirm your action when prompted.

    > Restart the computer to check if the issue is resolved.

    Here is an answer is for those with UEFI who have deleted the Ubuntu partitions before removing grub.

    Uninstall GRUB and use Windows bootloader

    Removing GRUB from a Windows and Ubuntu Dual-boot Setup

    Hi! I am removing my Ubuntu from a dual-boot laptop PC and I am following this guide to do it:

    How to Uninstall Ubuntu from Windows Dual Boot Safely

    However, I am skeptical of the sixth step, saying:

    Code:
    Step 6: In the command line, type the following command to fix the Windows boot loader: bootrec /fixmbr
    The reason why I am skeptical of it is because my PC has
    [b]UEFI not legacy BIOS[/b], and MBR is a component of legacy BIOS (if I remember it correctly).
    
    My question is: would this still work?

    Remove Ubuntu and install Windows 10

    I have a Dell laptop that came with Windows 10, I have completely removed Windows 10 and installed Ubuntu. Now I would like to install Windows 10 back. I have created a bootable USB with Windows 10.

    However during the Windows installation setup, I cannot select a partition to install Windows on because there are no listed partitions. How can I achieve this? Should I delete Ubuntu in the BIOS settings and try again?
