Hi,

I’m trying to install Windows from a USB using the Media Creation Tool, but during setup, I get an error saying, “This partition is too small. Make the size of this partition at least 10797 MB or select another partition.”
Currently, Drive 0 has a 267MB partition, a 474.7GB partition, and another partition with GB. How can I increase the size of one of these partitions to proceed with the installation?
Thanks!

Insufficient information about the computer. It would help to have a screenshot of your Disk Management. The sizes given suggest it's a 500GB-512GB drive. The 10797 MB converts to about 10GB, the 474.7GB partition may be too full and some data needs to be moved to external USB storage or some programs uninstalled. Any partition/s before and after the C:/boot/System drive usually can't be dealt with by Windows. Is the computer a Desktop or Notebook? Most Notebooks can't accept an additional drive nor some of the SFF/Small Form Factor cases.
