How to Delete Partitions via Diskpart
If you think deleting partitions on Disk Management is inconvenient, I recommend another Windows built-in tool - Diskpart. Let's delve into the full tutorial of removing partitions via command lines. This process will erase all your data, so do a full backup before that.
Step 1. Bring up the Run box by typing the "Windows + R," type cmd, and click OK.
Step 2. Use the following commands to begin the deletion process:
(Place "O" with the target disk or partition name. Hit "Enter" each time to confirm each command.)
- diskpart
- list disk
- select disk O
- list partition
- select partition O
- delete partition override
- exit
Prime Alternative to CMD: EaseUS Partition Master
As you can see, this method is quite complicated and requires a basic understanding of commands. If you are tech-savvy, EaseUS Partition Master is easier and more effective. Refer to the simple instruction to delete partitions within three steps using EaseUS Partition Master:
Step 1. Click "Partition Manager" after starting EaseUS Partition Master.
Step 2. Right-click your hard drive and select to delete partition or delete all partitions in the menu.
Step 3. Click "Yes" > "Execute xx Task" > "Apply" to finalize the deletion procedure.
