If you upgraded from a previous
version of Windows, or gave up your dual-boot system to stick with Windows 7,
you might be scratching your head wondering how to remove them from the boot
menu. Here's how to do it.
Over at the How-To Geek site (my
home away from Lifehacker), writer Trevor covers the process of getting rid of
the old entries, which is an easy task from the command line—first, open up a
command prompt in administrator mode by right-clicking on the entry in the
start menu. Then just run the
--------------------
| bcdedit |
--------------------
command to see a list of all the entries,
copy the unique identifier to the clipboard, and then paste it into the command
like so, replacing IDENTIFIER with the actual code from the clipboard.
--------------------------------------------
| bcdedit
/delete IDENTIFIER |
--------------------------------------------
bcdedit
/delete IDENTIFIER
It's an easy process once you go
through it, but keep in mind messing with the bootloader can be dangerous, so
proceed with caution. This tip should work for Windows 7 or Vista, but if you
haven't upgraded yet, you can still clean up your Windows XP boot menu
easily. Hit the link for the full step-by-step walk-through if you
aren't well-versed in the command-line.
