Recently I used Boot Camp to install windows on my MBP. I created a partition for windows (C: ), but when I was asked in which partition to install it, (if I remember correctly there were 3 partitions: "E", "F" and "C") I made a mistake and installed in F instead of C (and deleted partition C).

Now I'd like to delete windows and have only one partition for my Mac...can I delete "F" and have only "E"? would I be deleting any critical data?

I apologize if I'm not clear on my explanation, but I'm not a computer savvy person and it happened a while ago...

Thanks in advance!!!

Use the Boot Camp Utility (in Utilities in OS X) to return your drive to a single partition and start over. Really, that's the simplest and most direct way to fix this.
