Hello, long time lurker, first time poster here ; forgive me if this thread seems redundant, but I have done a lot of reading and researching on similar threads and cannot seem to solve this problem.
I have two hard drives connected to my pc, C: and F: . I am running Windows 7 Pro on C:, and Windows 7 on F: . I want to format F:, which I have already backed up to C: . I have tried formatting with disk management, command prompt, and have done startup repair the with Win 7 disk and then redid the process.
When I tried to format through Properties to begin with, it says the disk is in use. Could this be because I backed it up to C: with the same folder name?? Am I running two os at the same time? I cannot even delete the Windows files off drive F:, and I am at a loss. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks in advance.
