How to properly remove Win7, in a dual boot config
Good afternoon.
First off, I've been scouring Google for an answer to this (naturally including a couple tuts on this site), but most of those seem to involve a situation where 7 & 8 are installed on the same physical drive.
My situation is this:
Windows 7 was installed first.
The System partition and Win 7 partition co-exist on Drive A.
Windows 8 was later installed to Drive B, as a dual-boot option. No System partition appears to be present on Drive B.
My intent, having fully migrated to Win8, is to permanently delete Win7. (For space, more likely for an alternate clean install of 8.1 for various purposes, or maybe to try out 10.)
Do I:
A) Need to move the System partition to Drive B, before deleting Win7?
or
B) Simply delete the Win7 partition -- leaving the System partition on Drive A untouched -- and proceed as normal?
or
C) Something entirely different?
Thanks for your time.
