Solve : Erasing a backup Windows partition?

Answer»

When I upgraded from Windows XP to Windows 7 few years ago, I allocated the PARTITION D: to keep a copy of Windows XP in case things went wrong, i.e. dual boot Win 7 in C: and Win XP in D:.

So now years after, I barely USE the Win XP on my PC as I have an old laptop running XP.

Can I just delete everything on the D: DRIVE through Windows Explorer, or I need to format the partition?

Thanks.You don't have to format it, you can get away with just deleting the data.Hi QUANTOS,

I tried to do that but unable to delete those system folders i.e. Documents and Settings, Program Files, Qoobox, WINDOWS.
It says I need permission to perform this action.Try deleting it from Safe Mode, or try CCleaner(just do NOT run the registry portion).You could ALSO delete the partition...re-create it and then format it...Quote from: patio on March 08, 2014, 07:47:39 AM

How do I do that? Disk Management?
