[Windows Can't Be Installed on Drive and Partition?] 

What is the way?

      This error can occur when selecting an install drive after the first stage of Windows 10 installation process. If the partition you selected here is a local disk of a drive, the solution to this need to be done very careful. Other than that, if you are using a hard drive or SSD completely for Windows 10, then the solution can be done very fast, and simple.

Let me make it clearer. 

Here you can see all the partition of the drive connected to the computer. If Operating system is installed on a Partition, commonly known as C drive of a HDD(Hard disk). Then the fix is only need to apply on that particular partition. And it’s essential to install windows 10 without damaging other partitions.  For that, you need to do this procedure more carefully.

Let’s follow this procedure!

1. Power on the computer and press F10 key or hold the Shift key to enter into the Command prompt option.

2. Type the command “diskpart” and hit the enter key.

3. Type the command “list disk” (it will show all the connected disks.) 

4. Type the command “select disk 0” à Disk 0 is now selected disk. 

Important note: If you want to use the entire hard drive space for the Windows 10 operating system. From this point you can type the "clean" command and press the enter key. Then close the cmd (command prompt) and proceed to install windows 10.

    (Following commands will helps you to save other partitions)

 

5. Type the command “list volume” à It will show all system partitions.

6. Type the command” select volume” (carefully select the volume which you need)

7. Once the volume partition is selected. Type the command “Clean”.

  

 8. Type the command “create part pri”      

      

 9. Type the command “active”.  

    10. Type the command “format fs=NTFS label=DEEZ quick” (it takes sometimes to get formatted)

 11. Type the command “assign letter=c” (where previously OS is installed
