I installed Ubuntu before when I was using Windows 8.1. Now I have installed windows 10 after a removing ubuntu. I did a clean install of windows but still have grub in my bios. When i boot into it it just opens grub like a terminal.What should I do to remove the grub from my boot loader?
I have absolutely no experience with Linux, and I desperately need to get my computer back up and running again with Windows.  How do I remove Ubuntu and reinstall Windows?    Editor's note: many of the answers are about removing Ubuntu from dual-boot but keeping Windows (which is a bit complicated), while other answers are about removing Ubuntu from single-boot (which is easy: basically just format the disk while installing Windows). The question as written is ambiguous between dual-boot or single-boot.
A Monk threw three coloured darts, then spends one minute searching the battlefield, how many darts does the Monk recover? I remember my English teacher saying that there are only two valid ways to make a one-word sentence:   A question:      Why? Where?  A command:     Go! Stop!    Is this correct? How to figure if it is safe to travel to the area I am interested in? When planning a trip, I like to make sure I will feel safe enough (I am talking about war/terrorism risk, not pickpockets), or at least I like to have an idea about the risks. I know the risk could be subject to political views (for example the political stability of a region might not be acknowledged by every country) and therefore I am mostly interested in a Western country view.  In order to figure that, I thought about checking travel operators offers. I suppose if they do not organise trips to a specific region, it might be due to political instability risks. But it might be due to a lack of tourist interest too. As I tend to travel without their help, I am not really considering this kind of source as very helpful.  So I am interested in one (or two, for cross-checking) source(s) of information with a western view (I mean I understand the view could be biased) regarding the security of ideally any area in the world. My expectation is that, the same way I can browse a tour operator's catalog of visited areas, I could browse through the areas and see if it is recommended or not to travel there. How to merge multiple Internet connections into one? My PC has a total of 4 NICs, 2 wired Gigabit Ethernet network cards and also 2 wireless network cards. (One Broadcom with proprietary drivers and Ralink with open source software, which works much better than Broadcom.)  My cellphone can share its connection wirelessly to my PC, but I also have a wired Internet connection. So I have multiple Internet connections to access the Internet. How can I merge 2 or more connections together and balance them to enjoy one unified Internet experience that it is the sum of all Internet connections connected to it.  For example if I have a modem with an Internet connection of 1024kB/s and another one that offers 512kB/s and one small one that offers 128kB/s, after load balancing and merging all connections (Bonding or Teaming), I could download at a speed of 1664kB/s using all 3 Internet connections as one for example.  This question has always intrigued me. why does loop-cut-and-slide ignore some faces but not others? why does the loop-cut-and-slide operation ignore certain faces but happily cut others?the model is symmetrical so it is a bit strange to pick 3 faces that won't get cut. I tried applying it to see if it was just a graphics glitch causing the purple line to not display over everything, but it did end up cutting only what the line was selecting, instead of the whole mesh.    as requested,here's a paste of the blend: Can I successfully bake previously-frozen bread dough? Make Windows 7 ignore WiFi when ethernet is available When I dock my Windows 7 laptop, I want it to prefer the wired ethernet connection over WiFi.  This is a pretty straightforward thing to do on my Mac - I just reorder my network preferences, and it "does the right thing." I just can't figure out how to achieve the same thing on my Win7 laptop.  So, when I'm docked, it connects to WiFi, and then fails to connect to servers on the local wired network. How do I fix this? How to connect two parents to the same child, with parents not in the same tree? I'm trying to draw a specific tree, with two parents node linked to the same child. The problem is that one of the parent is outside the main tree.  Here's the code I have for the moment:  \documentclass{article} \usepackage{tikz-qtree,tikz-qtree-compat} %\usepackage{gb4e} \usepackage{forest}  \begin{document}  %\begin{exe} \begin{forest} qtree edges/.style={for tree= parent anchor=north, child anchor=south}    [A, grow=north        [C, name=C, grow'=north            [D, grow=north ]            [E, name=t5, grow=north ]        ]        [B, grow=north ]    ]    \hspace{0.8cm}    [$F$, name=F, grow=north ]    %\draw (F.north) -- (C.south); \end{forest} %\end{exe}  \end{document}   I'd like the nodes F and C to be connected. I don't know why, but if I delete the dollar signs, node F doesn't even appear on my document.  Another thing is that I want the forest environment to be embedded in an example environment, but this doesn't work either.  Thanks in advance for your help! Sort an array without rewriting a key Say I have the titanic kaggle competition, but I'm not interested in the competition for predicting survival for each individual. Instead I want the most accurate estimate of total survivors on the titanic. Would this be achieved by using a probabilistic model, then adding the probabilities for each individual? For example, if I have 3 people and 1 survived, but my model produced 0.4, 0.4, and 0.4 probabilities for each person to survive, I calculate 0 survived. But if I add 0.4 for each person, I get 1.2, which is closer to the actual. Does this make sense? Simple question but I am confused.  What is the boundary of $S^2\times\mathbb{R}$? Is it just $S^2$?  What would be the general way to evaluate the boundary of a product manifold?  Thanks for the replies! OS volume shows as type 'FFFFFFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFFFFFFFFFF' Yesterday, I have tried to delete an Ubuntu partition. Since, my Mac (13", MBPro mid-2014) doesn't boot. Now, I boot on Mac OS copy with an USB. i follow different subject of this forum (like this : ), and my volume partition change from FFFFFFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFFFFFFFFFF to 48465300-0000-11AA-AA11-00306543ECAC. But I still can't boot to it...    Thank you very much ! Access Denied using TakeOwn.exe I have got this file that I can't delete. It happened after a system crash, so the CHKDSK kicked in upon next reboot. After that, I can't delete the file.  THis is on Windows Home Server, and the file is one of those hidden Thumbs.db, and my WHS reports a "File conflict" on the file, the reason: Access Denied"  What I have tried so far, running as an Administrator: Delete: Access Denied TakeOwn.exe : Access Denied Attrib.exe -s -h : Access Denied cacls.exe : Access Denied   (even whe trying to display the current owner) Rename: File not found (its hidden) Re-boot in to safe mode and tried the above: Access Denied Running the above commands as Local System: Access Denied   Tizer Unlocker: Fail (Doesn't find anything locking the file) File Assasin: Crashes ("FindRemoteFileHandles returned NULL value.")  I have used the CHKDSK /f again, rebooted since some suggestions is that the file has been corrupted, but that didn't change anything. Any suggestions ?  Update: In a total separate scenario, I experienced a similar situation; Access Denied when trying to take ownership of a file. It turned out that the file was owned by TrustedInstaler, which is not possible to override just by being an Administrator. In this case, one can use psexec /ids cmd to elevate yourself to System and then TakeOwn.exe /a Assume there is a public-key encryption scheme $(KeyGen, Enc, Dec)$ with perfect correctness (i.e., for all messages M and valid key-pairs (PK,SK), we have $Dec_{SK}(Enc_{PK}(M))=M$).  Will there always be a function $A$ such that for all messages M and valid public-keys PK, $A_{PK}(Enc_{PK}(M))=M$?  In other words, can a computationally unbounded adversary decrypt the message, having only the public key? replacement wood threshold insert for metal door I have some late 70's doors and one is missing a threshold insert (the adjustable wood kind), anybody know of where one could by just the "wood strip" that goes in and screws down (there is a metal piece that sticks up into the wood, though you can't see it)?    They have about 4 screws that go down into them? Square bracket notation for dimensions and units: usage and conventions One of the most useful tools in  is the use of square brackets around some physical quantity $q$ to denote its dimension as  $$[q].$$  However, the precise meaning of this symbol varies from source to source; there are a few possible interpretations and few strict guidelines. What conventions are there, who uses them, and when am I obliged to follow them? How can I get free or trial ExactTarget instance If I create a file and then change its permissions to 444 (read-only), how come rm can remove it?  If I do this:  echo test &gt; test.txt chmod 444 test.txt rm test.txt   ...rm will ask if I want to remove the write-protected file test.txt. I would have expected that rm can not remove such a file and that I would have to do a chmod +w test.txt first. If I do rm -f test.txt then rm will remove the file without even asking, even though it's read-only.   Can anyone clarify? I'm using Ubuntu 12.04/bash. Proving identities (mod $pq$) using Fermat's little theorem? Mounting /cow on root failed: Invalid argument overlay mount failed I am using an xps 13 9365, which was data wiped from bios by a friend who then gave it to me thinking it was dead. I tried booting with a USB (current LTS distro (18.04 or similar)) boot disk and got into the language selection / setup menu. By using the F6 option I selected noapic. In bios sata is set to raid and legacy the secure boot option is off.   But when I try to install I get kicked into a tiny font window with the following message  (initramfs) mount: Mounting /cow on root failed: Invalid argument overlay mount failed  Any ideas?
