Today I did something extremely dumb. I found that I barely use Linux and decided to delete it. To do so, I deleted the partition with the plan to use it as some free space for storing backups while working with my Windows. I installed Ubuntu via unetbootin and it was dual-booted with Windows 10. The problem is, now I am redirected to the grud rescue screen everytime I power on the computer and I get some text, saying that the file system is unknown and the device cannot be found. I made a Windows 10 bootable USB to repair the Windows Bootloader but I can't load it for some reason. When I turn on the computer, I press F11 (as instructed) and I get a screen with some options. I pick the bootable USB but I get a message saying that the system disk is invalid, giving me the advice to replace it and press any key after doing it. I'm not really sure what all of this means, I would love to get some help!
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.

I am trying to move the data directory of my MySQL database to a second disk array that I have as a mount point /array2/.  The problem I am having is I have tried everything and after I modify the location of datadir in my.cnf mysql will not start up again.  All I get is:  start: Job failed to start Photons have no mass but they can push things, as evidenced by .   Can photons push the source which is emitting them? If yes, will a more intense flashlight accelerate me more? Does the wavelength of the light matter? Is this practical for space propulsion? Doesn't it defy the law of momentum conservation?  Note: As John Rennie mentioned, all in all the wavelength doesn't matter, but for a more accurate answer regarding that, see the comments in  .

This question is related to  and explores an apparent inconsistency, given only the Harry Potter movies as source material.  The Hogwarts Express line seems to have an inconsistent existence between magical (invisible to ordinary humans aka muggles) and non-magical (muggle) realms; platform 9-3/4 is clearly hidden from muggles, but in Chamber of Secrets, when Harry and Ron take the car (in the muggle world) to catch up to the train, they make no explicit crossing into a magical realm, suggesting that the train is traveling the muggle world despite its departure from a magical platform.  In which realm (magical or muggle) does the Hogwarts Express exist? How is this apparent inconsistency resolved? How to get reflections from 3D to show up on real images Prove that $n^3=n \text{ mod }6$ for every integer $n$. Prove that for every integer $n$ , $n^3=n \text{ mod }6$  I was having no clue how to do this, then I thought of case-by-case analysis and obviously it worked. The problem is that there were six case and together they are long.   Is there any shorter method of proving this.

Will the ordering of elements depend on the specific map implementation that I have for the interface? I found this odd relationship, $x^2 = \sum_\limits{k = 0}^{x-1} (2k + 1)$. Short story about aliens who want to trade items for information, stories, jokes etc Subset of a countable set is itself countable How is it proved that if $$A \subset B\ \text{with}\ B\ \text{countable} $$ then $A$ is either countable, finite, or empty? I think the proof involves a $1-1$ correspondence between $\mathbb{N}$ and $A$ but other than that I do not know how to proceed.  EDIT: I have checked the solution and it advises me to proceed as follows. " As a start to a definition of $$g: \mathbb{N} \rightarrow A$$ set $$g(1)=f(n_1) $$ Then show how to inductively continue this process to produce a $1-1$ function $g$ from $\mathbb{N}$ onto $A$."  So the proof according to my book involves induction. iOS: Your passcode is required to enable Touch ID What happened to the Grid at the end of Tron Legacy? Short story: people rediscover how to do math and want to put people in bombs Many years ago I remember reading a short story about an advanced civilization at war that rediscovers how to do math mentally. The reason I remember it is the guy tells it to government officials who are delighted because it means they can put people inside bombs or missiles instead of computers, which were thought to be more valuable.  I believe this is one of those stories I read in a science fiction anthology my father brought home on one of his business trips in the sixties or seventies. "He needn't say" / "He doesn't need to say" When I studied English at school (in Italy, more than 35 years ago), we were taught a rule according to which one should say, e. g., "He needn't (need not) say", but NOT "He doesn't need to say".  If I'm not mistaken, it was explained to us that the rule holds good with the following limitations:  1) only in the negative form: thus, "He needn't say", but "He needs to say", and "Does he need to say?";  2) only in the present tense: thus, "He needn't say", but "He didn't (won't, wouldn't, etc.) need to say";  3) only when an infinitive follows: thus, "He needn't see a doctor", but "He doesn't need a doctor".  But, if I google "doesn't need to", I find 125,000,000 occurrences.  I was wondering: does the rule hold good more for British than for American English?  Also, perhaps it isn't an absolute rule, and both constructions ("He needn't say" and "He doesn't need to say") are possible.  Is the rule at least a good description of the circumstances when we CAN (but needn't necessarily) use this construction?  Thank you very much, for this and the other answers. How can we get "Developer" bugs logged with Technical Support? I recently found a bug, which I mentioned on , as well as submitting a case, and after a few days fumbling around with the case, they closed it by saying that they only provide this type of support for Premier Support customers.  Is there a better channel for reporting bugs than by submitting a case, or is there something "special" we have to do? I realize this question is similar to , except that I've already gone the route of , as suggested by the answer there (i.e. submitting a case), to no avail.  How can I make sure that a bug like this can find its way to someone capable of at least confirming that the behavior was expected? This behavior isn't documented anywhere, and so I assume that it's a bug that needs to be addressed. When should I use # and = in ASP.NET controls? I have been using ASP.NET for years, but I can never remember when using the # and = are appropriate.  For example:  &lt;%= Grid.ClientID %&gt;   or  &lt;%# Eval("FullName")%&gt;   Can someone explain when each should be used so I can keep it straight in my mind? Is # only used in controls that support databinding?
