How can I delete the Windows 11 operating system from my laptop, which has a dual boot system? (feddit.org)
 

Hey guys, I've been using Linux Mint and Windows 11 via a dual boot setup on two laptops for a while.

I hardly ever use Windows 11, except on my work laptop, so I want to delete it from my personal laptop.

How can I do this? What is the safest and easiest way, and what should I bear in mind?

Thank you in advance for your answers, and have a sunny day!

Thanks, I'll update it from time to time when I need it.

Thanks for the answer. I was unsure whether it could be dangerous to the PC itself if you ignore the updates for both operating systems.

Yes, I've also read about problems with dual-boot systems after Windows updates, which is why I've refused to use Windows too often to make the updates worthwhile.

Hey guys,

I use my laptop with a Windows 11 / Linux Mint dual-boot system.

Since I actually use Linux Mint 98% of the time, I wanted to ask if it is still necessary to do the system and security updates for Windows 11 as long as Windows is not needed?

If a company called TikTok can survive and thrive, surely one called Mastodon can too.
