I had a single hard drive with Windows 7 on it and then created another partition and loaded Windows 10 on that resulting in a dual boot setup.
I want to eliminate the dual boot setup and delete the partition with windows 7 on it leaving a single partition with only Windows 10.
How can I do that without totally messing up the MBR and the booting process?
Thanks!
command prompt:
diskpart
sel vol c:
act
exi
bcdboot c:\windows /s c:
Then reboot your pc.
next is the interesting bit. You will be able to delete the win 7 partition in disk management, but you need a 3rd party tool to extend the win10 partition to the left.
Partition Manager Software: Partition Magic Alternative for Windows PC and Server | AOMEI Partition

Install the free version of aomei, get it make boot media and use the boot media to do the partition extending.
Worked like a charm. Command used was "bcdboot C:\Windows /s C:"
Thank you so much!
