Hey

I have an ssd installed in my pc. I dont know what is happening as it's not letting me boot to Windows, not allowing me to delete partitions, and not letting me install new Windows on it.

I went to linux environment, I can copy the data from the ssd but that's all. I tried deleting partions on it but nothing is happening.

I am sick and tired now, can anyone help please ?

What happens when you try?

What error message do you see?

What media are you using to install Windows?

You haven't provided much detail on your attempts. For all we know, the SSD is simply dead.

Details on this system?
Make/model of everything, especially the SSD in question.

Age, how full is it, etc, etc.

So when try to install windows it says, we couldn't install windows in the location you choose error code - 0x80300024

So i tried to clean the drive and convert to gpt via diskpart so clean was successful but while converting it said virtual disk services serror on current disk.

So i want to linux environment, i used F disk utilities in ubuntu, deleted the partion it said sucessful nothing happened. Gparted was giving error as well. Disk utilities is saying "errors synchronising after initial wipe: timed out for object (udisks-quark,0) "

I have no idea what do next

Some reading see if it applies.

From your description, it sounds like the drive may have determined it's reached end-of-life and flipped read-only. Have you checked the SMART values? I assume you've already copied any important data off it.
