    If I modify my existing PC to dual boot from the same drive into Linux, can I easily and safely delete Windows once I have migrated my files into Linux?

      Just one piece of warning for dual booting, if the EFI portion for Linux and Windows is on the same drive Windows could decide to nuke the Linux bootloader with any update…

      It’s not too difficult to create a redirect to the windows bootloader in Grub or similar, which is the solution I went with in the end.
