NOOB here with Ubuntu. I installed Ubuntu on a windows PC. Somehow i missed the step where I was supposed to install Ubuntu side by side with Windows. So I have an Ubuntu only PC. I want to get rid of Ubuntu, so I removed and re-formatted my SSD drive on a laptop. When I go to start up the PC I'm writing with now, it keeps bringing up Ubuntu. Mind you, I supposedly reformatted the ssd in my pc. Can someone help me wipe out Ubuntu on this PC? Any help is appreciated.

    If you totally reformatted SSD, then you deleted the ESP with Ubuntu boot files. But UEFI may still have an entry. Did you look in UEFI settings & boot tab (not UEFI one time boot menu)? You should be able to remove entry there. If not you can use Ubuntu live installer & efibootmgr. see man efibootmgr and -b command.https://askubuntu.com/questions/1198221/cloning-ssd-also-cloned-boot-options/1198228#1198228 – oldfred Mar 18 '24 at 17:03
