    "There are no fixed disks to show" How to get disk to show up?


    Hello Everyone,

    Currently I am fixing an HP Pavilion x360 Convertible (14-dw1000). After reinstalling, Window 10 21H2 and adding Lubunta OS; I dedicated to remove the Linux OS and just keep Window 10 21H2. I am familiar with the prompts to remove the Linux OS and GNU Grub from its partitions. The issue is I need to be outside of my OS to delete the list volume in main disk for GNU Grub to be gone.

    What crazy is I can see the my main disk in CMD when I am in Window OS. However, when I am outside of Window OS the disk will not show up. When I type list disk in CMD. It will say "There are no fixed disks to show." Now when I first install Windows, I had to add another USB that contain the driver to find the disk. So, do I need to properly install the drivers inside the Window OS for the disk to show up outside of Window OS. Last, how do you fix your boot loader after removing GNU Grub. Thanks for y'all time!
