How can I manually remove Ubuntu on my PC in Windows 8?

Recently I've briefly toyed around with Ubuntu 12.04 for a bit, and after navigating my way through multiple errors, I finally found that I was unable to run Windows as a missing file or something in that sense. I then refreshed Windows followed to successfully remove the "Grub Loader", however I am now finding me impossible to remove "Ubuntu" in the list of the operating systems that display at startup. I have no program in my list of programs and features as a result of the update and no chance of finding an effective method to eliminate Ubunto elsewhere have had so far.

Could someone give me preference simple indications (as I am not too familiar with some of the more complicated aspects of Windows) as to how I would like to manually remove Ubuntu. Also what I read I was informed that Ubuntu change my partitions or something of the sort? (I'm not familiar with what they are). If this is the case, can someone help me to restore to their original state I'm naïve about how do it safely.

I'll also add that if this is the easiest option and I have confirmed that it will fix everything, I'm ready to completely restore my PC.

Thank you.

But you'll have a different. Copy this line.

  • Right click on the line and select Mark and then highlight the link.
  • Simply press and hold down, then press Ctrl + C.

4. now you must remove that:

in my case I have {1476af63-e5bc...} in front of the identifier , I'll delete it:

bcdedit/delete {1476af63-e5bc...} and press ENTER.

For your case simply only replace the {1476af63-e5bc...}. in the command above.

Hope this helps,

    You can download and run a full scan of the system using the Microsoft Safety Scanner and check if this helps to eliminate the Virus.

  • How can I manually remove an update?

    Windows installed a pair of optional of 3rd third-party updates. Problems and I want to delete them. How can I remove updates? I don't see them on the program Panel to install, or I don't see an option to delete, on the Panel to view the update history.

    Hello AlexaRaven,

    A list of the installed updates is available, as said by Loulou, in the installed display updated programs and features.

    Locate the update that you want to delete, and then right-click on it. You should then see an uninstall option that you have to click to uninstall the update.

    It should be recalled, however, that once uninstalled, Windows Update will again offer to install. If you don't want to not re-installed, right-click on the update in Windows Update, and click the option "Hide update". The update will not be installed.

  • How can I manually remove a network adapter wireless, hidden and corrupt "Network connections" in Windows 7?

    I need to locate and remove a network hidden in Windows 7 device manually.  The device is called "Wireless network connection" but does not appear in network connections.  The reason why I know that its there is when I try to rename "Wireless Network Connection 2" to "Wireless network connection" I get an error that the connection already exists, even if the device has been uninstalled and is not listed.  I have to remove this connection because it is completely corrupt and preventing any wireless with a red X in the system tray.  The adapter works fine on another machine.  I tried showing hidden devices in device but Manager that has not worked.

    Open a command line window and type the following two lines:

    Set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices = 1
    Start devmgmt.msc

    In this special Device Manager window. in the menu, click view and then Show hidden devices

    Unwanted devices will appear dimmed. You right-click on them from there and uninstall them.

    Then return to your network center and rename your adapters for what you want without the sign #.

  • I can not manually remove a particular program to add tool / remove programs.

    I use XP Pro . Pack 3.

    All, but I can't manually remove a particular program from the add tool / remove programs. The program is "Ulead VideoStudio 8.0"

    The registry of the program given below entry between the quotation marks. I ran Microsoft FixIt (diagnose and correct program installation and uninstallation problems automatically) and she confirmed she fixed the error with success, but as I retried to remove said adding tool program / remove programs, it still reflects the same as we. The problem by deleting this program remained pending.

    SYMPTOM:

    I TRY TO REMOVE THE PROGRAM FROM THE ADD REMOVE PROGRAMS TOOL,-instead of OPEN the "UNINSTALL PROGRAM", SETUP PROGRAM OPENS RATHER AND ALSO request THAT THE registration KEY into the HOUSE.

    AS I ENTER THE KEY of RECORD, THE PROGRAM CONTINUE to INSTALL , BUT ends UP WITH a BOX of DIALOGUE of MESSAGE LIKE "'THE PROGRAM IS ALREADY INSTALLED IN MY COMPUTER:" "

    SO I HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE LEFT BUT TO STOP THE INSTALLATION (IT IS NOT AN UNINSTALL PROGRAM) WITH THE REST OF THE PROBLEM UNRESOLVED.

    NOW WHAT CAN I DO ELSE?

    Thank you & best regards

    Hi templar_39,

    DM (Message Delivery) file types are not Windows files, they can be generated by a third-party program.

    This particular file type is often associated with audio data and can be hosted on some cell phones to be used as ringtones or multimedia clips. To my knowledge, these files can be generated by your mobile phone.

    Note: you can go ahead and remove these files only if you notice that the files do not contain any important information.

    If this happens without connect you all devices (like mobile PHONES), this may be a virus or malware activity. You can run a virus scan to get rid of them
