    It's not clear if you installed Windows in a virtual machine or you installed Windows in Boot Camp but you run it in Parallels.

     

    If you installed Windows in Boot Camp, open "Boot Camp Assistant" (it's in /Applications/Utilities) and follow the steps to restore your hard disk into one volume. If you installed Windows on a virtual machine, just open Parallels and delete the virtual machine where you have installed Windows
