    thanks for the reply, the problem when i use AOMEI , it seems that it's working and i can delete and rearrange the partition but when i go to the disk management tools on windows i find everything as it is...the ubuntu partition is always staying , does not like to be deleted or extended or formatted

    Well once you delete it ... you would need to restart the system ..

    what I meant is you need to delete the partition ... then click apply to accept the changes and usually the program will ask you to restart the computer

    With these 3rd party partition management tools, you usually have to click APPLY to enforce the changes - I know this is the case with AOEMI, Partition Wizard and EASEUS. It sounds like you have not been doing that.

    There is NO way on earth you can delete a partition using a 3rd party program, only for it to appear like magic in Windows Disk Management.....unless you aren't applying the changes in the 3rd party software.
