Not much ... backup ALL IMPORTANT data, make sure that you are deleting the right partition. Proceed with deletion of the Windows partition - afterwards update GRUB : sudo update-grub

  1. All important data
  2. Check Firefox and Chrome bookmarks, WMP play lists. Also any scripts you might have created...
  3. Go to Users/USERNAME and check all folders in it. Eg. Documents, pictures, downloads, etc.
  4. Also check for any projects (Netbeans, VS) you may have created and saved in the Windows drive.
