At one time I had Ubuntu Linux installed along side Windows 11. I got rid of Linux. I still have this entry in my boot menu list. How the heck do I get rid of it without reinstalling Windows??

Open an elevated command prompt, powershell or terminal.
Type bcdedit /enum BOOTMGR

If you see one for Ubuntu type
bcdedit /delete {identifier} for Ubuntu.

That should remove the entry

That is the BIOS boot menu. Linux was removed from the WD Blue drive a month ago.

Disk management only shows my C drive and my DVD drive. I removed the Ubuntu partition with instructions for the Ubuntu forum.
