I want to COMPLETELY REMOVE Ubuntu.

Asked by Dylan

I installed Ubuntu full force confident in the fact that I'd be happy with it. Unfortunately, I'm not content at all with this operating system.

I did not use dual booting. I ONLY have Ubuntu on my hard drive. How do I remove Ubuntu and install my Windows 7 again? I've been stuck on this for 2 days and I'm becoming irritated and worried.

Please help me. Thanks.

Put the windows 7 recovery disks in the dvd drive and reboot your machine, and follow the restore instructions.

Once you install another OS you can remove the Ubuntu partitions and install whatever OS you desire.

Can I simply put in the installation disk of another OS?

Indeed, That's how you would uninstall any OS if you want to remove the current one

Can you help with this problem?
