Didn't work for me. After attempting to clean it, the screen prompts " Virtual Disk Service error: Clean is not allowed on the disk containing the current boot, system, pagefile, crashdump or hibernation volume." Any suggestions please? 😮

Reboot your pc then boot windows and directly ( shift + f10 ) and follow these step 😊

When creating the 'USB boot driver' the 'Partition scheme' has to be set to 'MBR' in order for this fix to work... I used Rufus to created my UBS booth drive, set the partition scheme to MBR to create the boot disk, then formated the HD & followed his steps & it should work for you to :)

MBR conversions can ONLY be done with WinPE repair disk, NOT with Windows 10 disks - AND - MBR isn't valid as a Windows 10 install anyway it seems. Right back where we started after 2 hours.

when converting it, it deletes all of your drive. And if you download it again it downloads as FAT32. How did you manage to make it work?

[@DSRT888]

Guys if you're having problems try switching to USB 2.0 and the device windows is being installed from. I used my External hard drive + followed the instruction in the video and I got success. If this doesn't work follow Ricardo Kinson reply under dello abusayaf comment. While also switching devices.

Thank you so much i can finally used my laptop though it was very old i only have this to used for online class.. This is what i did i hope it can help anyone. So you need to have a usb bootable drive for your windows to install then go bios just up the flash drive and save then install the windows in the partition disk format all partition the delete until only one unallocated partition left. Then type in your keyboard "SHIFT F10" to enter command promp and Type "Diskpart" enter Type "list disk" type select disk 0 or what ever disk you have there. Then type clean after that type convert gpt. And then enter and after that exit then exit.. and you should next only the unlocated parition to install and you wont get any error. Thank you so much for this videoo
