How do I delete w8 consumer preview -

Im trying to delete W8 without having to format the drive its on. Would just deleting the folder work? Im trying to avoid formatting because I have other programs on that same drive that I use with w7.
any help would be appreciated |

It's not the brightest idea to cross share software like that. The best way is indeed to just format the partition, but if that's really not feasible then yes, delete the %WINDIR% (Your Windows directory).

i have w7 on another ssd so formatting wont affect my w7. I just dont wanna reinstall all the other games and programs I have on the ssd where w8 is on.
I tried to delete the folder but it says I need permission even tho Im in as a admin on w7 |
