no, I didn't. I left the old windows on purpose, so I can switch and use the other, as there I have a lot of things.

You cannot use Applications installed on one Operating System, if you are booted into the other Operating System. The reason is because each partition (assuming you installed to seperate partitions), contains it's own Registry and Windows Files and these are not interchangeable.
