[Xyphoseos]

Hello, I've windows (8.1) and ubuntu (17.10) in the same HDD, I want to upgrade from ubuntu in 18.04. Can I lose my windows data if I do it ?

No, you're fine. Just run apt-get dist-upgrade (or whatever the command is now).

You should be able to upgrade Linux just fine on a dual-booted system. Linux tends to be friendly with other OS's and also tends to use GRUB2, which is also very dual-boot friendly.

Thank you, and another thing :

Do you know how can I hide the grub menu?

This should work

If not you might need to run
sudo update-grub2
I am doing this by memory, so I could be a bit off.

Can you add a few more details to that? What's actually not working? Are you getting any errors?
