    [SOLVED] I can't get rid of dual boot option after installing RemixOs


    Hi,

    A friend of mine brought me an old hard disk in which he wanted me to install remix os on, we plugged it in my pc (using a USB adapter), installed Remix Os (choosing hard disk option) then unplugged the disk (he went home, didn't like the OS and ended up formatting the whole disk).
    Now whenever i turn on my computer, i get this :
    Msconfig-> boot have don't have any trace of RemixOs :

    And neither does the Startup and Recovery in Advanced system settings :

    what can i do to solve this please ?
    thanks

    I see a page file on Disk 0 which should not be there unless you put it there, it may have come from the Linux install you did.

    I would think EasyBCD could delete the extra boot menu items.

    Wait for an expert to confirm :)

    EasyBCD is free, you just have to register.

    Hey, i just tried EasyBCD, it does nothing unfortunately, just like Windows 10 tools, it doesn't see the other Boot option at all



    Also tried the "Re-create/repair boot files" Action, didn't do anything too.
