how do i do that from mint

#

use that as a solid guide to make a bootable live ISO that actually will work to load the Windows ISO (installer) up.

#

you'll need a USB drive which is at least 8 GB. (About 6 to hold Windows, and another 600 MB or so to hold a bootable tool called gparted-live )

#
  • you can use gparted-live as a mini OS and partitioner to SHRINK any ample space of linux partition on the main drive. this MUST be done from a live environment, not regular gparted.
#

after shrinking (Windows will need at bare minimum 50 gigs), then exit from gparted-live environment, reboot to ventoy usb and pick the Winstaller iso and boot it.

@turbid gulch hi stunner

#

I have heard that windows can mess up with your linux partition if you dual boot them

#

Is that right?

turbid gulch
#

yes.

#

and u can fix it.

#

or do dual-drive dual boot. installing each OS in total drive isolation from one another.
