liberating disk from former multi-boot system

My setup is a formerly multiboot Win10/XP system.

L: primary, system, active (Disk6) [held the WinXP install from which I upgraded to Win10. ]
C: primary, boot (Disk7) [holds the current Win10 install]

Both disks have \Boot\bcd and a bootmgr file.

I want to remove Disk6, but the system will only boot when both disks are present.

I've made C: the boot drive with EasyBCD (it might have been already) and in the BIOS it's the first bootable disk.

bcdedit /store X:/boot/bcd /enum gives the same result for L: and C:

I suppose boot still starts on L: for some reason.

Could the solution be as simple as making C: the active partition?

Any help appreciated.
 
Yes.
If you used EasyBCD Backup/Repair > Change Boot drive, it should have done that for you.
If you're still having problems, please post a screenshot of your Disk Management
