Solved Deleting one of two installed versions

[Cinders]

I have 2 partitions on my hard drive and had installed a different version of Windows 7 on each.

Wanting to get rid of one of them I made the mistake of simply reformatting the partition.

I now have the situation where I still get two options to choose from, on startup.

Do I have to go into the BIOS to fix this and if so, how? Or is there another method?

Thanks in advance for any help

You will have to use an editor to change the boot file a simple one is Visual BCD Editor - graphical bcdedit for Windows 7-10

:ar: Windows Boot Manager - Delete a Listed Operating System - Windows 7 Help Forums

That's brilliant - thanks a lot, I'd forgotten about the BCD. I've actually found - https://neosmart.net/EasyBCD/.
