Clean install Win 10 problem: Windows could not prepare the computer..
Hello!
I am currently trying to clean install Windows 10 Home Single Language version 1809 64-bit in my Lenovo laptop. I have created the bootable USB with the Media Creation Tool and started the process. I booted with the USB, and followed every steps provided in the tutorial in Clean Install Windows 10 | Tutorials but it failed. It did the 'copying windows files', 'getting files ready', 'installing features', and 'installing updates' (which I presumed is skipped because I was not connected to the internet) but after the 'finishing up' part, it cancelled the installation and showed the pop-up "Windows could not prepare the computer to boot into the next phase of installation. To install Windows, restart the installation."
I have already tried repeating the steps about 4 times and it still failed. But my C: drive (the OS drive) is already deleted and therefore I can't use my old OS.
Does anybody have any steps I can follow to solve this problem? If anybody can help me, I would be very thankful! Or if somebody needed more info to solve the problem, I would provide those!
