Come installare Windows su PC con Linux?

by

When you want to remove Linux and install Windows on a system that already has Linux installed, you need to manually delete the partitions used by the operating system before installing Windows. However, you can automatically create a Windows-compatible partition during the operating system installation. Here’s how to delete Ubuntu and install Windows, as well as how to install Windows 10 from a USB after removing Linux.


  1. Find Ubuntu in the list of installed programs and uninstall it like you would any other program. The uninstallation software will automatically remove the boot loader entry and Ubuntu files from your computer. You can also install Windows alongside Ubuntu using VirtualBox, a well-known free virtualization software. This procedure is extremely simple and only requires a few clicks.

  2. To install Windows 10 from a USB on Ubuntu, follow these steps:

    • Purchase the Windows 10 ISO version.
    • Install WoeUSB by adding an additional PPA.
    • Use the downloaded Windows 10 ISO to create a bootable USB drive. Make sure to choose a USB drive with at least 6GB of storage.

In this context, you can use WineHQ, a free and open-source application, to run Windows programs on Linux. WineHQ allows you to install and run Windows programs designed for Windows on your Linux computer.

To install Windows 10 on Ubuntu in dual boot, follow these steps:

  1. DualBoot Ubuntu and Windows 10:
    • Create a backup.
  2. Create a live USB/Ubuntu disk.
  3. Create a partition for Ubuntu.
  4. Install Ubuntu and Windows 10. Optionally, disable fast startup in Windows.

To configure your computer with Ubuntu, follow these steps:

  1. After pressing the gear-shaped button, select the "Format Partition" option.
  2. A new window will open, allowing you to select the new file system. Choose the file system for formatting by opening the "Type" dropdown menu.

To completely remove the Ubuntu operating system, follow these steps:

  1. Click on the yellow folder icon on the taskbar to open File Explorer.
  2. On the left, select "Computer" and go to the EFI partition to access the EFI folder.
  3. Delete the Ubuntu folder and move it to the Recycle Bin.

To uninstall Ubuntu using the terminal, follow these steps:

  1. Use the command "sudo apt-get remove program_name" to remove a software from Ubuntu.
  2. Launch the command "sudo apt-get –purge remove program_name" and press Enter.
  3. Enter the system administrator’s password.
  4. To confirm the software removal, press Enter and then press (Y).

To install Windows 11 on Ubuntu, visit the Microsoft Store and search for your preferred Linux distribution, such as Ubuntu. Install the distribution as a regular application. After installation, you can find the distro in the Windows 11 Start menu.
