Uninstalling Ubuntu Dual boot
I have Ubunutu dual booted on my PC with Windows 10. It is set up so that Windows boots automatically, unless I got to the boot manager and change to boot manager priority. I want to remove Ubunutu and free up the space I have committed to the instance of Ubuntu. Can I just delete the Ubuntu partition from Windows? Is it still necessary to remove the grub boot manager etc. even though my system boots automatically to windows unless told otherwise?
Thanks,
Luke
