I installed ubuntu 13.10 on my usb. Then I formatted the usb with ubuntu 13.10, but now how to remove the ubuntu from boot loader on windows 8. I was trying to install ubuntu 14.10 on my hard disk but it says "a previous installation of ubuntu was found on C:/" although I had formatted the usb and there is no ubuntu folder in C drive. How to remove it from boot loader because I think it would be causing problem?

You can use EasyBcd to remove the Ubuntu Entry.
There's a Payware version and a Freware one. --- http://neosmart.net/EasyBCD/#comparison

You installed ubuntu on your USB and made the mistake to install grub on the C drive instead on the USB. Well now you need to download CCleaner and do a registry clean and see if it does the trick. -- piriform.com/CCLEANER– TasosJul 25, 2014 at 10:09
