needs to read:
Code:
sudo dd if=/usr/lib/SYSLINUX/mbr.bin of=/dev/sda
However, that instruction only is applicable if your Windows and Deepin are installed in legacy/MBR mode. You've provided no information to suggest whether or not that is the state of your system. For most computers made in the past 10 or so years, that situation is uncommon. If Deepin is still bootable, boot it, run the command
sudo efibootmgr, and show here the result. If it's not, enter BIOS setup and examine the boot priorities section and try to determine whether UEFI entries exist, or both UEFI and legacy/MBR/CSM entries exist, or only legacy/MBR/CSM entries exist, then describe here what you find. Optionally, boot Windows and try to find where Windows reports whether UEFI is in use or not.
For removal with UEFI the current state, the instructions for removal via Deepin are incomplete on that page.
As I explained in my first reply, "uninstalling" Deepin as preparation in order to install some other Linux distro is entirely unnecessary.
