Remove OS partition

[alex_the_gr8]

**TLDR**
Restore my PC without any partitions.

PC model: ASUS ET2321INTH
So I got this 'manufacturer referbished' AIO PC I wanted to give my parents ( I know they suck but my parents aren't gamers so it'll do just fine for them) but it has a partitioned HDD, one part for the OS and one part for any data. I think its really stupid to do this and its only going to confuse my parents. I was wondering if there is a way of restoring the PC so it is not partitioned. I don't have any OS disk or anything, so I figured if there was no other way that I'd just buy windows 10 and reinstall it and restore the HDD that way. I'd prefer not to though, so please if anyone knows any other way your help would be greatly appreciated

use disk management to delete the second partition, then expand windows partition.

Fair warning :
If there is ANY problem with OS (and format will be needed), U will have to erase ALL data on the entire hard drive.
With two partitions, format will be limited to OS partition.

Think really hard before switching to single partition setup.

I dont care about the data partition, I just dont wanna stuff up the os partition and lose my OS

Is it really that simple? 

Could I then restore the PC to get rid of the bloatware??

if you're restoring the PC might as well just use the installer to remove the partitions and create a new fresh one but yeah it's that simple.

during the install click custom when it gets to asking where to install it will open this

 

Delete everything and create a new partition that fills the drive.

It is done! No stupid partitions, windows 10 installed and NO bloatware! 
Thank you heaps vorticalbox!!
