How to remove Ubutnu if installed on seperate partition (Dual Boot system)





If you have installed Linux on its own partition in a dual-boot configuration, there’s no easy uninstaller that will remove it for you. You will need to delete its partitions and repair the Windows boot loader on your own.
To remove the Ubuntu from your system, follow these steps.


Deleting Linux Partition.



1. Press the Windows key to open the Start menu or Start screen, type below command diskmgmt.msc into the Start menu or at the Start screen, and then press Enter to launch the Disk Management application.





2. Locate the Linux partitions, right-click them, and delete them. You can identify the Linux partitions because they have no label under the “File System” column.




3. Merge this emptied space with nearest windows partition or make a new drive.






Fixing Bootloader


1. Insert the Windows installer(windows 8) or recovery disc into your computer and restart your computer. 



2. Click the Repair your computer option after booting from the disc.



3. On the Choose an option screen, click the Troubleshoot icon. 




4. Click the Advanced options tile, and then click the Command Prompt tile. 




5. Once a Command Prompt window is open, type the following command and press Enter


bootrec.exe /fixmbr 

 

6. restart your computer 




Happy Learning :)
