I have recently installed Ubuntu 12.04 (using wubi)dual booting with Windows 7. Having read that Kubuntu desktop has similarities to Windows I later downloaded Kubuntu. I have since concluded that Kubuntu offers no advantage over Ubuntu and would therefore like to remove Kubuntu. Could somebody please tell me how to do this, leaving just Ubuntu. May I have any answers as idiot proof as possible please.

The following commands will install the Unity Desktop as is packaged with Ubuntu and remove the KDE Desktop as is packaged with Kubuntu.
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
sudo apt-get purge kubuntu-desktop
sudo apt-get autoremove

Aside from removing the kde applications, and replacing them with unity (maybe another answer could give you more insight on that topic) i would simply reinstall ubuntu...
- DL ubuntu from the official website
- create a bootable medium as described on the official ubuntu website
- boot said medium from your bios
- proceed with installation
I know its an over simplified solution... But it would undeniably fix your issue
