I just formatted the drive containing Ubuntu from Windows and merged the partition.

But when I go into the boot option, I can still see the Ubuntu option and GRUB is still there. Please tell me how to remove Ubuntu and GRUB completely...

WARNING: after this your disk is completely empty. All data gone.

You have to remove and recreate the partitions. Start up with a live ubuntu cd/usb and use fdisk to remove the partition(s). When you install windows again the correct partitions wil be created.

When you only have one harddisk 1 boot ubuntu live cd 2 open a terminal 3 type: fdisk /dev/sda ( I assume you only have 1 disk) type: d (delete partition) type enter and repeat this until all partitions are gone. 4 Install Windows.

When you have more disk be very careful! when you do: fdisk -l /dev/sda
you can see de configuration of the disk. Check if it is the right one. when not type: fdisk -l /dev/sdb To see if this is the correct disk.

This is all your own risk. Be careful.
