Thank you,
Are there any likely issues with me doing that? Like, can it wreck my dual boot or anything? Sorry, again, completely new to this.
Cheers
Nothing permanent that I can think of. You're probably running on mostly default settings anyway. It's a laptop so you'll likely only have one hard drive so boot order shouldn't be an issue. Only thing I can think of is if you got some kinda hardware encryption setup, but that's not likely on your typical laptop.
