    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?

    If that restores Windows 10, use EasyBCD to add an entry for Linux mint:
