I have gone through quite a few questions on askubuntu similar to mine, like

How do I set windows to boot as default in the boot loader? Unable to locate theme engine?

How do I set Windows to boot as the default in the boot loader?

but they do not provide the exact answer I am looking for. I have a dual booted PC with Windows 10 and Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr. I may wish to uninstall Ubuntu in future, and I have all except one step completely sorted out. I want to set Windows as my default Operating System, i.e. the PC should directly boot into Windows, without displaying any menu.

While dual booting the PC, I had executed this command to get GRUB menu to load:

bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\ubuntu\grubx64.efi

What command should I use to set the path back to its default value?

I do not want to use any additional tool. I do not want to uninstall Ubuntu right now. I want to achieve this using the command prompt from within Windows only.

Any help would be much appreciated. Also, this is my first question on askubuntu. So if I have not followed any rules of posting, please let me know.
