    Uninstalling an OS from a partition?


    Hello,


    My computer came with a dual boot 1 to Xubuntu and the other to Windows 10.
    I want to remove and uninstall the Xubuntu partition, so I looked in the Disk Management and I see that there's a 184GB, 2 500MB partitions and another that is 53GB. To remove the Ubuntu do I just remove the 53GB partition?


    Thanks, ofido.

    W7 Hard drive partition issue

    to get rid of that 100 meg windows partition that setup creates for you on a new install on a blank hdd:

    - press shift+f10 when on the partition management screen in setup <-- this opens a command prompt
    - diskpart <-- start the windows command line partition management tool
    - list disk <--- list the installed hdds in this computer for the next step
    - select disk 0 <- might have to replace 0 with the number of the correct disk
    - clean <-- this will erase all data on the disk you selected one step up- dont use the wrong disk!
    - create partition primary <- creates a primary partition taking up all space on the drive, adjust the command if necessary
    - exit, exit to exit diskpart and the command prompt
    - click refresh in partition manager and select your newly created partition and install to that
