Reinstalling OS X from Window 10 Partition

Hello,

Recently I have used Bootcamp to install Windows 10 on my 2013 Macbook Pro 13-inch.

I can no longer boot into OS X, and I would like to delete everything from the hard drive and just reinstall OS X. Is there anyway to do this from the Windows Partition?

Thanks

MacBook Pro, Windows 10

1. Boot into Internet Recovery (Command+Opt+R) - OS X: About OS X Recovery - Apple Support .

2. Click on Re-install OSX in the Recovery Console.

Please be aware...

Which version of OS X is installed by OS X Recovery?

If you use the Recovery System stored on your startup drive to reinstall OS X, it installs the most recent version of OS X previously installed on this computer.
If you use Internet Recovery to reinstall OS X, it installs the version of OS X that originally came with your computer. After installation is finished, use the Mac App Store to install related updates or later versions of OS X that you have previously purchased.
