unfortunately no. When you purchased the PC, you purchased the license the license for Ubuntu and not Windows. You may be able to go to sites like Amazon and buy a Windows 8.1 DVD, download the Windows drivers for your computer and go from there, but because of the license attached to your computer Dell cannot provide you with the Windows DVD.

UBUNTU is free windows is not. You can install windows on your Dell but you have to pay for your copy of windows 8 or 10. Dell only supports the OS that it was originally purchased with.
