Reset UEFI

signum123

Hi,
I want to sell my Aspire V17. So I need to clean my laptop completly and also delete all partitions.
The problem is that I had tried to install ubuntu as dualboot next to windows 10 but it hadn't worked because I hadn't known that Acer
requires to disable secure boot when installing ubuntu under uefi. Currently I am not sure if this ubuntu installation changed uefi or not.

Is it possible to reset UEFI to factory mode or at least to see all entries in UEFI?
Or is it safe to delete the partitions anyway?

I've already tried EasyBCD to read NVRAM that gave this output:

There is one entry in the Windows bootloader.

Default: Windows 10

Timeout: 30 seconds

EasyBCD Boot Device: C:\

Entry #1

Name: Windows 10

BCD ID: {current}

Drive: C:\

Bootloader Path: \WINDOWS\system32\winload.efi

It seems that ubuntu was not added to NVRAM. Is there anything else that I have to check?

Thank you in advance

i think it's ok.
you can also to a load defaults on UEFI, enter it pressing F2 at boot and the press F9 to load defaults and then F10 to save and exit.

Just removed the partition which was dedicated for ubuntu. Everything is still working.
Thanks
