I just removed Ubuntu from my PC by wiping the second SSD. I’m still seeing the GRUB bootloader on that drive, but I need to get rid of it without erasing the data from my first partition.

Use Disk Management to create a 300MiB Fat32 partition for EFI, set swap as a swap file, and choose ext4 for the root partition. Also configure three partitions in total.

The partition isn't visible in the Windows Disk Manager interface.

Was das eine MBR- oder EFI-Installation? Wenn es die EFI-Version war, könnte es die Windows-Fat32-Partition auf deinem anderen Laufwerk geteilt haben. Bei EFI ist es unsicher, wie man darauf in Windows zugreift. Du kannst einen Live-Disk booten, die Fat32-Partition mounten und alles löschen, das sich auf Grub oder Ubuntu bezieht. Dann kannst du efibootmgr verwenden, um den Bootprozess zu starten.
