Hi, you need to manually remove the entry for Ubuntu wubi from your boot.ini file.

or ... have a look-see at the wubi-guide (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#How%20do%20I%20manually%20uninstall%20Wu bi?). As partyboi referenced, you'll have to manually edit the boot.ini file and delete JUST the wubi-referenced lines.

Just the wubi/ubuntu lines .......
