To "uninstall" Windows, simply format its partition. You can use various tools for that. Probably gparted
would be easiest for you.
IMPORTANT: Make sure to copy the data which you want to preserve. Userspace by default is located in C:\Users\<Username>
.
Afterwards, it is as simple as running # update-grub
.
Your other partitions will not be affected, however you need to make sure to mount them. This may include editing the /etc/fstab
file accordingly.
Linux will have no problem with NTFS (assuming that's the filesystem you use).
Drive D
andDrive E
are Windows names, I would guess they would vanish with Windows.
