I needed to uninstall Ubuntu from a Grub dual boot Windows 8.1 \/ Ubuntu 14.10 computer.<\/p>\n
Removing Ubuntu and moving the disk space back to Windows is straightforward and most recipes explain it pretty well. In short: open Disk Management in Windows, delete Ubuntu volumes and partitions then extend the Windows partition.<\/p>\n
Restoring Windows boot, however, is another story. Most recipes online require the Windows installation disk or key, but I didn’t have any. The workaround is to create a recovery drive (search for “create a recovery drive”). Boot from the drive, then start the command prompt and write:<\/p>\n
bootrec.exe \/FixBoot\r\nbootrec.exe \/FixMBR\r\nbootrec.exe \/FixBoot<\/pre>\nThat fixed it for me.<\/p>\n
I recommend restoring the Windows boot before<\/em> removing Ubuntu, otherwise you may end up with a computer that doesn’t find any OS.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
