so i started partitioning some space for windows today, and decided i wanted more space so i canceled it. Than i tried it again and came up with error of not being able to move files and to reformat it as mac os extended journaled. so i went to disk utility but i t was already that format. then i noticed in the side by all the drives there is one called "bootcamp" even tho i didnt make it. Than i went into bootcamp and its like its installed and the selections are to create or uninstall windows and start windows installer windows.

when i click uninstall it only sees my mac partition....so in order to fix this problem do i just erase it from disk utility? if so how?

thanks, just ask if you have any Q's

its also appeared on my desktop

Boot Camp Assistant is the way to go and these are the windows you will see during the use of Boot Camp Assistant removing the Windows partition.
