How do I delete a partition on my hard drive in Windows?

This is done via the "diskpart" operation.

a. Click on the Start Menu and type "diskpart" in the textbox, and press Enter. A command window will open.

b. Type "list disk" and press Enter.

c. Choose the drive by entering "select disk x"; for example "select disk 1" if it is listed as disk 1. Press Enter.

d. Type "clean" and press Enter.

e. The drive's formatting will be removed. It will say "Successful" upon completion.
