Windows 10 64 bit home won't install (screen cap of error)

Physically uninstalling is no problem since I just had to pull one cable from a modular PSU. The problem now is that I don't have an 8 GB flash drive to download Windows onto as apparently NVMe needs a bootable USB to install from. I ordered one from Amazon

Good plan, I have a 32 GB flash drive just to keep the latest version of Windows on. Installing from USB solves 90% of the install problems in my experience. I also update it every few months to make sure the latest security updates are on there.

The reason why USB is better is because it jumps through the UEFI hoops for you. If you do DVD, the only easy install path is MBR. DVD + UEFI, last time I tried, required manually creating partitions.

Here's the official download link to the media creation tool (I don't trust any non-Microsoft.com domain name for this): https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10
