Now that I have my dual boot system setup properly on my Work PC, I want to uninstall it from my Home PC, as I'll no longer need it on there. 

Windows 10 Pro is installed on my SSD and Ubuntu has it's own partition on a secondary HDD.

So, how do I uninstall Ubuntu system and keep Windows 10 installed?

Just delete the partition with Ubuntu on it.

You can boot on Windows installation media and fixmbr or if it was fixboot, dont exactly remember. 

 

1. Diskmgr and delete the linux partition

2. Boot on a Windows boot stick or what ever you have. 

I would delete the entries in nvram aswell. But from linux/before I remove the partition, don't know how to do that from within Windows.
