Hi!
I tried installing Debian 9 on my Windows 7 laptop this morning and have managed to break my Windows. I'd like to have it set up so I can choose which OS to boot from at start up. I used the Debian GNU installer to partition my hard drive and install. I am able to start Debian from GNU GRUB...

Alright I have a 60GB ssd on my desktop and I have noticed Windows is using up almost 60% of my disk space (according to WizTree). Windows is preventing me from deleting some junk (like unneeded upgrade files, OneNote, and even Visual Studio) so I currently have about 5GB of space left even...
I wanted to check on which of these partition Ubuntu is installed as I want to delete them from the disk management menu.(disk management pic is attached with this post)
I have a 600 GB hard drive and run Win 10 -clean install.
I would like to use the Windows 7 the pc came with.
Can I shrink the drive by 100GB and install Windows 7 on the new partition I would create without hurting Windows 10?
I have never done this before so could use a few tips.
Say i have 1 physical C drive with 3 partitions:
1) System Reserved
2) Boot (Where Windows lives)
3) Lubuntu
Then i have a bad BSOD!
I boot, and on Grub i choose Lubuntu.
Can i secure erase partitions 1&2 but leave 3 untouched?
3 is rescue & fix partition!
If secure erase, wipes the whole...

I'm scared of partitioning D: drive to install Linux.
My most important files are backed up in the cloud but have loads of stuff i don't want to loose.
The process went fine for my C: drive which already had windows 7 in it.
Should i expect a similar scenario for my D: drive?
