Unfortunately, that I wouldn't know.

 

I would be cleaning the disk so that there were no partitions at all.

Well, I formatted C partition in my PC so that I have to use a windows from an external drive.  If there is no windows in PC,  when I boot from usb stick, is still there any way to use "Diskpart"? That is, I will boot from a usb stick which is prepared for installing windows in a PC with no O.S, and I will try to use "diskpart"?

 

Thank you.

Hi:

 

Yes.  When you get to the Install Now screen use the Shift + F10 keys to get the command prompt.

 

Watch the video again.

I did it. Would you please explain why my disk appeared here?

And why is it that my disk 0, which has already turned into GPT,  is unallocated now?

Hi:

 

Unfortunately, I would not know why things turned out that way.
