Yes, if you load another linux distro it should fix grub for you, if not when you're in linux just get the grub manager and delete any entries you no longer need/want and then update grub... IIRC that's the procedure.

Just updated the grub boot loader with sudo update-grub and then it did not show windows as a option.
