I'd just like to interject for moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact--

oh. nevermind.

you may have peaked in 2000, but the current version of windows is the best.

the best version of any OS is the one that has a roadmap for continued updates

in windows' case this is 10

in macOS' case this is whatever the newest one that runs on your hardware

in linux's case this is windows 10

you know how there are those conspiracy nuts who say the middle ages were made up by some holy roman emperor or some poo poo?

1,000 years from now a similar theory will arise about windows 9, only in reverse.

1. Disconnect Additional Hard Drives
Nowadays it is very common to use an SSD for Windows installation and a regular HDD for data storage. When using multiple hard drives, the first and foremost thing to do is disconnect all hard drives except the primary hard drive where you install Windows. Once you disconnect all your other hard drive(s), try to install Windows again and see if you can proceed with the installation.

it worked for me thanks. but after removing all my other drives and keeping only the SSD for the installation.

Disabling other harddrives did the trick for me

Same here, unplug your microSD! I went thru the entire diskpart process 4 times (about 5 hours each) until I figured it out…

Like many of you after running the Diskpart I to found that I still could not access the drive but after disconnecting the other HDD's present it ran in fine. It has taken me all day but I am finally there.
