So recently I downloaded the most recent ubuntu iso for installation alongside my Windows 8.1. Everything went really smoothly with no errors or hiccups during installation. The only thing is I've decided that I just wanna go back to using Windows 8.1. I haven't a clue how to uninstall ubuntu now. I was going to use the windows installer but there wasn't one available, however fund this latest iso which provided a much improved installer which as I said made things go a lot better.

Has anyone any idea how to uninstall it as I tried the DVD I burnt the iso to and all it gives me the option of is reinstalling ubuntu, there is no option to uninstall once I've installed.

Any ideas anyone?

Why would an operating system need an uninstall option? You uninstall an operating system by installing another one over the current one.

Or by starting a 2nd operating system and use their version of gParted and delete the partitions the operating system is on that needs removing.

To clear a disc from all operating systems you could install gParted, unmount all the discs and delete the partitions until you have 1 big "unallocated" space. Booting will then result in a "no operating systems found" error message.
