How can I install Ubuntu on Windows 10 as dual boot? I have a DVD with Ubuntu and when I tried to install Ubuntu I had a warning that the hard disk will be erased. How can I install Ubuntu and keep my Windows 10? Thanks

I booted from the Ubuntu ISO which I burned on a disk and installed Ubuntu, and chose the option to replace windows 7 with Ubuntu, now the version of windows 7 I was running was an illegal cracked version and I already had tried to get rid of it without booting into the actual OS and after many attempts was unsuccessful. Now did installing Ubuntu and choosing the option of replacing windows 7 actually solve my problem and did it wipe the previous windows OS EVERY LITTLE PART OF IT.

I have 2 partitions (Windows and Ubuntu 13.04) and I am asked which one to boot each time I turn on my computer.  I want to install Ubuntu 13.10 to the entire disk.  I do not mind if all previous Ubuntu/Win data are lost.  How can I do that?

I am just about to install Ubuntu alongside Windows, just need to make sure I know how to remove it later.  I know from past the major problem was when I removed Ubuntu, I either still got into the GRUB booting menu, or I couldn't boot at all, and had to format HDD and start over. Now I found an article practically saying the Windows loader should be back upon deleting Linux partition, so I want to make sure:  If I have Windows and Ubuntu dualboot, and I want to get back to Windows booting quickly itself without choosing from any booting menu, is it enough to just delete the Ubuntu partition? Will the Windows loader override GRUB?  Thanks!

I am going to be buying a second hard drive for my desktop here pretty soon, because my current hard drive is a piece of junk running windows 7. What I want to know is how to install Ubuntu on the second drive. I am looking for a non complicated answer as I am not familiar with the Ubuntu lingo. I am so sick of Windows.. I used Ubuntu before but it didn't work properly. When I installed it, it said I didn't have enough space... Even though I had 600GB to use. Anyway if anyone can help me out it would be much appreciated. Thanks

I am brand new to Ubuntu. I have just build my new PC, it has 2 separate hard drives installed in it. I would like to install Windows 10 on the first SsD (They are both 250GB Samsung 850 EVO) and i would like to install Ubuntu on the other and be able to choose to use either one or the other on dual boot. As i said I am brand new to Ubuntu. In fact, I have not downloaded or installed it as yet. I would like to know if this dual booting from separate hard drives is possible.

I installed Ubuntu (twice actually) onto the same drive. I wanted to 'try again' since one of them didn't install correctly and the other installed differently, but it worked.   I was getting frustrated with the GRUB menu because it was really sloppy (There were two Windows options - one with the Windows bootloader to go into Ubuntu, and two different versions of Ubuntu from the first install for some reason and memtest, etc.).  In my attempts at getting rid Ubuntu to do a fresh installation, I went ahead and deleted the partitions that weren't swap or main via Windows 7. As I said, I am a noob.  Now, even though I though I completely got rid of Ubuntu, including the GRUB menu, when I boot my PC I am brought directly to GRUB Rescue. And from what I've found from other forums, GRUB rescue isn't even completely functional for me (it doesn't recognize any commands that it should support besides ls. It also returns unknown filesystem for any partition I try to view or boot.)  Is there any way that I can boot straight into Windows? I fear I may have gone about deleting those partitions in the wrong way. If so, what are my options?

I have absolutely no experience with Linux, and I desperately need to get my computer back up and running again with Windows.  How do I remove Ubuntu and reinstall Windows?    Editor's note: many of the answers are about removing Ubuntu from dual-boot but keeping Windows (which is a bit complicated), while other answers are about removing Ubuntu from single-boot (which is easy: basically just format the disk while installing Windows). The question as written is ambiguous between dual-boot or single-boot.

Soooooo, I seem to have myself in a very particular situation. Let me start from the beginning, I set up dual boot with Windows 10, and Lubuntu. Everything went according to plan. I then decided that I wanted to remove dual-boot. I looked on several articles some saying to use bootrec.exe, to repair and remove it but then I realized "It doesn't use the windows boot manager... it uses grub." So with this knowledge I searched for guides on how to remove grub. I found a guide () I could not access my system drive, so I dual-booted into Lubuntu and used root to access the EFI folder and deleted the "ubuntu" folder and rebooted to a happy little message saying: Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key_ . I realize that all my data is still there. I realize that in deleting the "ubuntu" folder that I deleted critical files part of the loading of grub. I now need to somehow replace these files, and get back to Windows 10.  Sidenote: I don't have bootrec.exe as a command. I checked this before I deleted the grub files.  Thanks for the help, -r

I've installed Ubuntu 13.04 two times on my PC. Each on a different partition. I would like to delete the one which I'm not using. How would I do that?

I am trying to install a fresh version of Ubuntu in my computer without touching the windows 10 dual boot! In the Installation Type, the first option seems exactly what i wanted to do.  My question is, is this feature is safe to use? because i don't want to lose any windows files and other NTFS partitions on the hard-disk. Please eliminate my confusion. Note as that i dont need any files or media which are in the ubuntu partition, Thanks.

I installed Ubuntu (I had already had Windows 8.1) from USB (I still have live Ubuntu on it). Is there a way I can uninstall Ubuntu in a way that my Windows will remain bootable? All the tutorials I have seen say that uninstalling ubuntu will delete GRUB also so I will need a Windows recovery CD to boot into it, but I don't have one. Is there a solution?

I have dual booted my laptop with windows 8.1 and Ubuntu 15.04. Windows came as a OEM with the laptop so I didn't delete it as I paid for it and I am not using it though. I want to know if I do the free upgrade to Windows 10 will it destroy my Ubuntu partitions? or will  it mess up anything in the boot files or grub?

I'm going to reinstall an operating system in my computer. I had Windows 10 earlier, and now I'm thinking of using Ubuntu. I haven't used Ubuntu before, so I have a few doubts.  Does Ubuntu run faster than Windows 10?
