How can I delete second partition of Windows 8 is not working.

Original title: 2 Options of Windows 8 boot after installation

After the instrall of Windows 8, I find myself with 2 startup options for ' windows 8 '. We work, we do not. How can I delete the one that does not work?

This might help, it might not. I had an additional option of Windows 8 start after the installation of Win8 Pro Dev preview. I even formatted my drive (I have 2 disk for Win8) first and always happens.

First, run Disk Cleanup and clean up system files. This could find older versions of windows to be deleted.

I found the extra startup option by running 'msconfig' and selecting the tab "boot" by selecting the extra startup option and pressing 'delete' this problem for me solved.

I hope this helps.

  • How can I delete a partition? Standard procedures do not work

    Hello

    Context:

    MacBook Air (mid 2011), version OS X El Captian 10.11.4

    128 GB SSD into a 70 GB partition (OS X el capitan, the name is "Macintosh HD") and a 50GB partition (used to be bootcamp, name is now 'B'). The 50 GB partition needs to go.

    I erased the 50 GB for OS X extended (journaled) partition, but when I click on the partition, I still can not remove it (the infamous "less grey", see picture).

    I can resize, Macintosh HD remains to 70 GB and a third made partition which in turn can be eliminated, but the space that he released is allocated in B again, which does not solve anything.

    By restarting on recovery mode and using disk utility it has not allowed for the partition to be removed either.

    As you can see from the image above, I also did an eDrive, where I still can't delete the partition of 50GB.

    Note: Filevault is turned off.

    I feel pretty silly since I managed to do it before on a previous version of mac OS... (at the time where I had to enlarge the bootcamp partition, but to do this I had to remove everything first, because of its format)

    Help me, apple community, you're my only hope!

    I believe that when you create a Boot Camp partition, it had to be removed using Boot Camp Assistant.

  • How can I delete second partition?

    Hello, I recently created a second partition on my C: drive.  I changed my mind on the installation of a new OS, so now I would like to delete the partition and merge it into a C: drive.  I have to mark the partition as inactive, and now I'm ready to remove it. But when I try to delete or format the partition, I get this message:

    Delete is not allowed on the boot volume, system, file, dump on incident or current hibernation.

    I understand that this message should appear if I was on the c: partition, but not on the second partition, I created.  How to delete this partition?  Thank you

    Thank you for your response.  I found the answer on an accident!  I changed the drive letter and restarted and after that, I was able to delete the partition and extend the main partition to take all the C: drive.  Thank you

  • How can I change the search engines if /searchreset does not work?

    I just upgraded to 23 FF, and it or some other setting changed my default Yahoo search engine. I want to go back to Google, which I think is the default value. Another thread of support was driven to https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/, but that has not worked. I went in: config and Yahoo changed to Google on several lines, but it did nothing. I tried to change the searchreset.backup.keyword.URL and the keyword. URL, but they would not change the setting Yahoo.

    Not only is my default stuck with Yahoo, but even if I click on the arrow pointing downwards in the search box, I can not select a different search manually engine. The drop down menu shows me a list of search engines, but by selecting one of them has no effect. Help?

  • How can I remove modules - your advice to help does not work.

    Your Council says click on 'Tools' then 'Modules' and it then takes me straight to the Add-ons page. There is no option "Extension, appearance or plug-ins" that I can choose.

    To uninstall a possibly unwanted extension, please proceed as follows:

    1. In the Firefox Firefox window click on the top left and select Add-onsor, if the Firefox button is not displayed, click the Tools menu, and then click Add-ons.
    2. Once the add-on Manager has opened in a new tab, click the Extensions button on the left side of the window.
    3. You should now see a list of your extensions installed on the right side and buttons on the right side of each extension.
    4. To remove an extension of Firefox, simply click on the Remove button. You should see a message that informs you about the deletion of the add-on.
    5. Note that some modules require a restart of Firefox to make it disappear completely. To perform a restart of Firefox after removal of add-on, click restart now in the message.

  • How can I get hpzidr12.dll? HP SOLUTIONS DOES NOT WORK

    I have a c7280 all in one printer and just installed win 7 32 bit ultimate on windows vista ultimate. HP solutions asked me on an upgrade to get the printer etc drivers and software updated for win 7. I downloaded the complete installation as directed by HP and the installation version, the computer just sits there in the part of installing software and then comes up with the next Dot - 4 Wrapper message repair. This file does not exist and is required for installation. then it gives me the necessary dll. who is C:\windows\system32\hpzidr12.dll manufacturer HP version 0.0.0.0. Where can I get this DLL file? I can't support for HP because my printer is under warranty and of course all the HP wants is your money if you have a problem and certainly no worries to try to help their clients regarding this problem. I installed their patches, and they do not work. Now, my printer is not fax or copy. It is connected wireless and I did HP diagnostics and wireless printer software and device software and several patches there including the dog patch, and the patch scan. always uninstall and reinstall the software reveals the same problem and when you make the wireless Assistant and Assistant Diagnostics my printer is recognized and pass all the tests. also the wizard test to the PRINTER and fax work just fine, and I can send and receive faxes and copy and scanning, fine print. When on my computer, however, the tests work as leader, however, when I go to HP solutions program gives me an error (yellow triangle with exclamation point) and States printer is not connected. Yet, I can print and scan from the software, but I cannot fax or copy an error message appears and States may not connect to the printer. MY Device Manager and IP address and printer Wi - Fi testing and diagnostic diagnostic all work well and find my computer and also do report no problem Firewall etc. I guess the program of upgrading hp had me use to get win 7 working with HP software solutions has a defect. I uninstalled the upgrade HP Software Download Center gave me and tried to install my original software I got with my printer when I bought it and it signals it is impossible to install the software under win 7. Yet once, I try to install the software version download full reports HP will modernize my HP solutions to work in win 7 and again once I get don't find it the above dll file and that it is necessary to make the installation work. So where can I get the correct version of the HPZIDR12. DLL VERSION 0.0.0.0. ?????

    I guess it's the library file of dynamic links that I need to get my HP software solutions to work in win 7. I have had some discussions with HP technical support and had 5 different technicians try to help me rounded up to 20 hours multiple msconfig takdowns etc etc and I have a program that does not work. What is a registry problem? I ALSO HAD A PROGRAM WHICH IS SUPPOSED TO CHECK AND FIX REGISTRY, FILES AND IT DOES NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM.

    Please HELP ME AND maybe A COMPUTER GURU CAN GIVE ME SOME INFO ON HOW to SOLVE THE MYSTERY OF THE HP solutions SOFTWARE DILEMMA?
