If I modify my existing PC to dual boot from the same drive into Linux, can I easily and safely delete Windows once I have migrated my files into Linux?

I guess Trump could add a new canal to the Red Sea, as per an old proposal involving nukes to dig it. Considering this administration, I wouldn't be surprised at all.
For the martial masters among us, this is one way to dispose of a Nazi.
Up til now, I only had gaming desktops for the last 30+ years. Still, I might be able to borrow a laptop from another resident of the building. Hopefully with a power cable and all of that.
...Wait, up until now I was using GPedit to try and force Windows Enterprise to update with my permission and timeline, but it always seemed to be a bit ignored. But I can use 'services.msc' to disable Windows Update from starting up. I can probably use the WSUS tool if I want specific updates from that point on...
In theory, anyways. I will have to try it out. I don't want to migrate if I can avoid it.
Something adjacent to degoogling: I am concerned that Microsoft would collaborate with the Trump Regime. I never used Linux before, but I am now downloading Ubuntu. It feels like that I should do a dual-boot setup and get ready to abandon Windows if I hear about MS HQ in Washington having a DOGE presence.
Here's hoping that Europe and the Blue States are watching Microsoft for anything weird.
I would like to be able to afford my own house. My residence has a hoarder and a messy person, and I am not allowed to clean up. I would like to be able to walk in the laundry room without tripping on clothes, and the front room is filled with trippables. Also, I never went on vacation. The distant shores of Hawaii, Japan, and Egypt will never be known to me. My life has been defined by a lack of fiscal agency.
Here's hoping that the turmoil of today will allow future generations to have enough wealth to live a satisfied life. At this point, that is all that I can hope for.
Punching Nazis is coming back into antifa-fashion.
...I will show myself out.
We could use a better name, but for now it will have to do. I expect that we will have a civil war down the line, and a more suitable name will arise. Of course, Facist America would still call itself America. Hm. We could call it "Famica"?
Feel free to toss names into the hat.
Good call. The odds of Bezos of being part of Vichy America's cabal is high. A man who prefers their deliveryfolk to piss in bottles and break their bodies in warehouses, is pretty likely to support a war machine that assaults Canada.
It will be important for Canada to divorce itself from as many Vichy services and goods as possible.
Can't say I feel bad about this, nor for piracy. IMO, copyright shouldn't be a thing, or least limited to a small chunk of a human lifespan.
